description |
In testing the imfile functionality, I learned that when $WorkDirectory is not explicitly set, it defaults to '/'. This means that state files (and presumably other files) are written directly in /. This violates the FHS and is generally weird.
Upstream documentation uses /var/spool/rsyslog, which seems like a sane default. Patch to achieve this is forthcoming. |

Granted, it appears that at least with imfile, the file is created then unlinked while keeping the fd open, I am not sure of the other uses of WorkDirectory. At a minimum, setting WorkDirectory allows us to adjust the AppArmor profile to have a reliable location.
