This is a little too terse and vague for me to grok.

What is it that you think is the problem — that rsyslog packages are now required? Why is that a problem?

--- Additional comment from Tom London on 2013-12-09 16:21:00 EET ---

Sorry, I just converted to journald (and removed rsyslog).

My recollection (perhaps faulty) was that installing rsyslog will install/setup systemd units for it as well, and will "re-enable" rsyslog.

--- Additional comment from Tom London on 2013-12-09 16:59:41 EET ---

Yup, I updated glusterfs (which installed rsyslog), and now I have rsyslog enabled:

[root@tlondon ~]# systemctl status rsyslog.service
rsyslog.service - System Logging Service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service; enabled)
   Active: active (running) since Mon 2013-12-09 06:49:50 PST; 6min ago

Is that what is expected? I had it disabled/removed prior to this....

Yes, we are using rsyslog.

I'm inclined to think this is Not-A-Bug and close it. Bala, what do you think?

--- Additional comment from Bala.FA on 2013-12-10 07:31:15 EET ---


Yes.  We use rsyslog ATM.  Closing as NOTABUG

--- Additional comment from Yanko Kaneti on 2014-01-29 14:27:42 EET ---

The strict requirement in -libs is completely bogus. You ship an _example_ rsyslog config in the main glusterfs package that wouldn't even be enabled unless the admin does it.

-libs is used throughout the stack with the majority of users not even remotely close to having a glusterfs setup.

--- Additional comment from Yanko Kaneti on 2014-01-29 15:24:46 EET ---

On a related note, the -api requirements also seem suspect.

The subpackage is a runtime thing yet it requires glusterfs-devel.

The Requires = %{name}  probably should be %{name}-libs

The python part could be split up from the main api library to avoid bringing up python where its not needed

This has been addressed with Bug 1016938.

That is planned for the future (3.6 release), the Python gfapi.py bindings are moving to their own package (and project):
- https://github.com/gluster/libgfapi-python

I'll close this bug report now. Please open separate bugs for separate issues.

--- Additional comment from Yanko Kaneti on 2014-04-22 18:00:01 EEST ---

Sorry but I'll reopen this again because comment 8 doesn't actually address the main issue in this bug of glusterfs-libs hard dependency on rsyslog-mmjsonparse, hence rsyslog.
Maybe DEFERRED means something I don't understand.

--- Additional comment from Simon Gerhards on 2014-04-28 17:47:26 EEST ---

Why this (indirect rsyslog dependency) is a bug:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NoDefaultSyslog states that a default installation should not contain rsyslog and glusterfs is installed by default. Thus having glusterfs depend on rsyslog is unwanted beaviour.

--- Additional comment from Yanko Kaneti on 2014-05-01 14:11:53 EEST ---

Kaleb, I don't know what this GlusterFS product is.
What the reporter and I care about is the spurious hard dependency on rsyslog in  glusterfs-libs  in Fedora.
I am cloning bug back to Fedora.
