[Bug 2064096] [NEW] rsyslog service timeout on noble numbat

[James Paton-Smith]

Public bug reported:

This might be related to #2064088

The rsyslog service is continually timing out and restarting. If I use a
service drop-in file and change the 'Type' from 'notify' to 'simple',
the service starts and appears to work normally.

In the journal, I can see the attached apparmor errors. I can't make
sense of them, but if it's a similar issue to #2064088, then I suspect
apparmor is preventing the systemd notify function from alerting systemd
that the service is up and running.
