Description of problem: When running journalctl, a warning appears similar to Journal file /var/log/journal/fe39ba83b9244251b1704fc655fbff2f/user-1001 uses an unsupported feature, ignoring file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): systemd-231-11.fc25.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run journalctl, with most options. journalctl --verify shows it. Actual results: Journal file /var/log/journal/fe39ba83b9244251b1704fc655fbff2f/user-1001 uses an unsupported feature, ignoring file. Expected results: No warnings. Additional info: The warning indicates the file is using compression that journalctl doesn't recognize. journalctl in this package appears to have been built without LZ4 support.

Seeing this too, if simply running "journalctl" journalctl Journal file /var/log/journal/8e494e07f3a7423b8ac7661fff29d5ca/system uses an unsupported feature, ignoring file. -- No entries --

I'm working on it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1404406 ***
