I'm sorry I was unclear. The instructions in README.Debian are
perfectly fine. The problem is when persistent logging is not enabled,
as /run/log/journal does not have the adm ACL set.

A jessie system by default will not have logs in `systemctl status`
and require root for journalctl.

I do not understsand the purpose of the systemd-journal group; if it
is safe to replace with adm everywhere I think that in Debian it
should be, as the adm group is the one for reading logs. That is
probably too intrusive for jessie, though.

I hope I was clearer this time.
