Bug#792090: journalctl: Error was encountered while opening journal files: Invalid argument

[Paul Menzel]

Package: systemd
Version: 222-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Debian folks,


at least since updating to systemd 222-1 I am unable to use journalctl.

    $ journalctl --version
    systemd 222
    +PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +IMA +APPARMOR +SMACK +SYSVINIT +UTMP +LIBCRYPTSETUP +GCRYPT -GNUTLS +ACL +XZ -LZ4 +SECCOMP +BLKID -ELFUTILS +KMOD -IDN
    $ LANG=C sudo journalctl -a
    Error was encountered while opening journal files: Invalid argument

This issue has been reported upstream at GitHub in issue #487 [1].


Thanks,

Paul
