Public bug reported:
After running Bionic for 3 months, I had 2.6 GB of journals.
I would not expect from a normal desktop user that they should have to
run commands like `sudo journalctl --vacuum-time=10d`.
I would nominate this command as a sane default to have running at each
reboot to ensure that logs do not exceed 500 MB:
sudo journalctl --vacuum-size=500M
Supposedly, a server should by default retain more logs, so perhaps this
should be implemented through a configuration package "systemd-
configuration-desktop" as a dependency of the ubuntu-desktop meta
package?
