[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

This is indented. /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/00rsyslog.conf overrides the mode specified in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/var.conf.

So this this just cosmetical.

[dino99 (9d9)]

Looks like that issue is now gone with 219-4ubuntu2

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

It's not, the warning is still there. (even though we have bug 1428540 and tmpfiles are broken for other reasons)

[dino99 (9d9)]

confirm , that error is still shown on journalctl (my fault to read log too quickly)

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

This is an expected warning.

[John Drinkwater (johndrinkwater)]

This bug still exists in 15.10 - if it is expected, it should not be producing a warning in syslog, as it contributes to accidentally glossing over actual issues that appear.
