[Bug 1587791] Re: apport hides systemd postinst service start failure error messages

[Robie Basak]

In my example, "systemctl status amavis" did show me the error, so
presumably if systemd has it this is because the init.d script did
output the error to stdout or stderr. So I guess it's the priority as
pitti suggests.

Title:
  apport hides systemd postinst service start failure error messages

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  See bug 1587695 for example. Expected: amavis' failure reason in the
  original bug report. Actual: we are only told that it failed, not why,
  which systemd knows anyway and which the service correctly reported.

  This is a regression from before systemd-boot, since before
  DpkgTerminalLog contained the message.

  This problem hinders bug triage.
