Bug#764481: systemd: Verbosity in journalctl is lacking

[Brian Potkin]

Package: systemd
Version: 215-5+b1
Severity: normal




This machine began with a minimal install from d-i's beta 2 image and
exim4, cups, dnsmasq, openssh-server and gpm were installed before
upgrading to the present unstable.

Under systemd 208-6 (provided by d-i) the following command was issued:

  systemctl stop cron.service cups.socket dnsmasq.service ssh.service exim4.service gpm.service

Journalctl recorded

  Oct 08 14:29:52 jessie-208 gpm[1287]: Stopping mouse interface server: gpm.

The same command under systemd 215-5 produced:

  Oct 08 14:51:01 jessie-b2 sshd[375]: Received signal 15; terminating.
  Oct 08 14:51:01 jessie-b2 dnsmasq[392]: reading /etc/resolv.conf

  Oct 08 14:51:01 jessie-b2 gpm[749]: Stopping mouse interface server: gpm.

Apart from no "Stopping....." for the non-LSB services there is no record
at all cron or cups. Stopping, starting or restarting any of cups.service
cups.socket and cups.path leaves no trace in journalctl. There appears to
be nothing in the /etc configuration files to account for this.

Regards,

Brian.
