Oh One One - Rotational Velocity

Bug Fixes For:

Fails to recognise journal file rotation (#27,#26)

Previously the plugin would stop reading logs when systemd journal rotated journal files. Upgrading is recommended as this bug seriously limits the utility of the plugin. A backport fix will also be available for the 0.0.x branch to support those still using fluentd 0.12.x and td-agent 2.

I have tested these fixes against systemd 219 and 229 on CentOS7 and Ubuntu 16.04LTS respectively, and I hope that this release will fully resolve this issue for all users. However some users still reported issues at the prerelease stage.

Thanks to @dannyk81 and @ledbettj who were very helpful in debugging this issue.

fluentd Crashes if journal path not available (#24)

The plugin would cause fluentd to crash if the path given to the systemd journal files was not present/available. This fix means that fluentd will continue to run and gracefully wait until the path becomes available.
