Bug#805617: systemd: journalctl --system as user: "No journal files were found"

[Andreas Krüger]

Hello, Michael,

you asked:

> Can you also send us the output of
> ls -la /var/log/journal

I'm not sure this is still needed, but I'll leave that for you to
decide.  The following is after my initial workaround, no additional
change beyond that.

In passing: It strikes me as somewhat inconsequential that the
software produces fine-tuned ACL, but I as the admin I have to
remember to set the g+s bit on the directory for that ACL to do any
good.  That's not a big issue, though.

Regards, Andreas
