Helps: #664. Currently, logs are written to disk twice, once by journald and once by rsyslog. rsyslog may log to multiple locations depending on the type of the log. To reduce disk I/O, disable rsyslog and rely solely on systemd journal. Place the code in config module as there is no better place for it currently without creating a new module. Can be sorted later. The following files under /var/log/ are no longer populated on FreedomBox. They will be rotated away over a few days. Use journalctl instead to view the messages: - syslog - messages* - auth.log* - debug* - daemon.log - kern.log - lpr.log - mail.log - mail.info - mail.warn - mail.err - user.log Tests performed: - On a machine with rsyslog running, run ./setup.py install and start FreedomBox service. This triggers the config app's setup. rsyslog is disabled and masked. systemd-journald is restarted. - Even when rsyslog is unmaked and enabled manually, systemd journald does not forward message to syslog anymore.
