[Bug 1675515] [NEW] old KLogPermitNonKernel directive error in rsyslog.conf

[Murray Anderegg]

Public bug reported:

The rsyslog.conf provided in Xenial contains an error that is logged by
rsyslog at startup with the short name. rsyslog ignores a '$PreserveFQDN
on' when logging this error. This is an issue when using a log
aggregation facility such as Splunk. A fix is to correct the error in
the provided rsyslog.conf.

** Affects: rsyslog (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New


** Tags: message startup

** Patch added: "Patch that fixes directive in rsyslog.conf"
