[Bug 1484027] Re: systemd-tmpfiles-clean warns about duplicate /var/log line

[Paul Crawford]

If it was fixed in 8.12.0-1ubuntu3 why am I still seeing this on a
16.04.2 system with:

apt-cache policy rsyslog
rsyslog:
  Installed: 8.16.0-1ubuntu3
  Candidate: 8.16.0-1ubuntu3
  Version table:
 *** 8.16.0-1ubuntu3 500
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

It happens one per day it seems.

Title:
  systemd-tmpfiles-clean warns about duplicate /var/log line

Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Triggered by the two /var/log entries that were reported in
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1434295, I get
  daily log messages from systemd-tmpfiles-clean saying:

  Aug 10 15:04:13 seraph systemd[1]: Starting Cleanup of Temporary Directories...
  Aug 10 15:04:13 seraph systemd-tmpfiles[5897]: [/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/var.conf:14] Duplicate line for path "/var/log", ignoring.
  Aug 10 15:04:13 seraph systemd[1]: Started Cleanup of Temporary Directories.

  I don't know much about systemd, so I have no ideas for how to fix it,
  sorry.
