Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rsyslog
rsyslog's upstart job tries to start rsyslogd when the package is
removed but not purged (and therefore /usr/sbin/rsyslogd doesn't exist),
yielding this error message at boot:
init: Failed to spawn rsyslog main process: unable to execute: No such
file or directory
[...@virt07.roch.ny:pts/0 /var/log> dpkg -l rsyslog
