[Bug 1946388] Re: Journalctl -f --file some.journal causes coredump

[Nick Rosbrook]

The autopkgtest regressions blocking systemd 245.4-4ubuntu3.16 in focal-
proposed have been resolved. The regressions appear to have been related
to recent autopkgtest infrastructure issues, and retrying the tests
resolved the issues.
