Details

Description: The systemd service file starts rsyslog in compatibility mode 6, but the rc.d script uses compatibility mode 5. These should be made the same, and I would guess that both should be at level 6.

From the systemd service file:
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/rsyslogd -n -c6

The rc.d script gets this variable from /etc/conf.d/rsyslog
RSYSLOGD_ARGS="-c5"


Additional info:
* package version(s): 6.4.0-1

According to [1], the -c parameter should be dropped completely.

Actually, the rc.d script sets -c4 not -c5. It should have been `RSYSLOGD_ARGS="-c4"` in the original bug report details.

This issue still exists in rsyslog-6.4.2-1
