Description of problem: journalctl's logs verification fails and I never altered it. Is this ok? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $journalctl --version systemd 222 +PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +IMA -APPARMOR +SMACK +SYSVINIT +UTMP +LIBCRYPTSETUP +GCRYPT +GNUTLS +ACL +XZ -LZ4 +SECCOMP +BLKID +ELFUTILS +KMOD +IDN How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo journalctl --verify Actual results: https://paste.fedoraproject.org/316305/45408886/ Got a lot of "FAIL: File corruption detected at" messages. Expected results: All logs should pass. I never changed my logs in any way. Additional info: I never used this feature of systemd so I might be misusing it. From what I understand a system with logs that have never been altered should pass the validation.
It usually means that the file was not closed properly when shutting down or similar. You can ignore those failures, journald will remove those failing files following normal rotation of logs.
