10:41 <pitti> rbasak: hm, no amavis messages in
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/262668434/JournalErrors.txt, so I'm not
sure if that'd actually help

10:41 <pitti> rbasak: might be that this is a forking service which only
outputs to log files, not to stdout/err?

10:42 <pitti> rbasak: ah, wait, this only shows messags with priority >=
warning, so maybe that's why

10:42 <pitti> rbasak: yeah, I guess we can amend the ubuntu hook for
package failures to include the status

Title:
  apport hides systemd postinst service start failure error messages

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  See bug 1587695 for example. Expected: amavis' failure reason in the
  original bug report. Actual: we are only told that it failed, not why,
  which systemd knows anyway and which the service correctly reported.

  This is a regression from before systemd-boot, since before
  DpkgTerminalLog contained the message.

  This problem hinders bug triage.
