Bug Description
[impact]
in some situations, restarting journald causes assertion failure.
[test case]
intermittently, when restarting journald. See upstream bug for repro details.
[regression potential]
this adjusts the journal file destructor, so any regression would likely occur when cleaning up journal files and/or stopping/
[scope]
this is fixed by commit c377a6f3ad3d9be
[original description]
While restarting systemd-jounald, the following error message occurs:
systemd-
release: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS
systemd version: 229-4ubuntu21.22
This issue is reported at https:/
Please cherry-pick this fix to the ubuntu16.04 package.

As this is intermittent, and the patch is clearly correct as well as trivial, I included it without successfully reproducing myself.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for systemd has completed successfully and the package is now being released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

This is fine since I trust in every verification from you and your team, but for formality please always provide the version numbers of packages that have been tested! Thank you!

While I do see the bug and upstream fix, it would help the SRU process to know how to easily reproduce this. I tried the upstream instructions of editing journald.conf to set Storage=auto as well as removing the journald dir before restarting, but I can't reproduce this, at least not using Bionic. Do you see this only on Xenial? What are your steps to reproduce it?
