This file is a systemd unit file. Over the past months, we received numerous complaints from the RH'ish community because of the "wrong" content of this file. Thus, we changed it to silence these complaints. Now, very similar complains come from the Debian'ish community (https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/pull/4317#discussion_r445907950). The root cause of these problems is that this is not really a ryslog-related file. It is a systemd unit file, and obviously very highly depending on distro policies. It was an excellent idea to add this file back in the early days of systemd when nobody knew about unit files. Nowadays, however, a single "proposed" unit file causes more trouble than it solves. As such, we will remove the file in rsyslog's project root. Instead, we will provide distro-specific sample files in the ./platform subdirectory. This way each distro can maintain its (considerably different) rsyslog.service without the rsyslog interfering with it. closes https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues/4333

This subdirectory contains platform-specific files. They are maintained
|
|
based on a best effort basis, and are not necessarily the same like the
|
|
specific platform ships them. Some files are changed in the way the
|
|
rsyslog projects would recommend them; some may even be outdated.
|

|
|
Use this with care. If in doubt, please have a look at the official
|
|
distro repos. They obviously have the gold standard for each distro.
