Comment 5 for bug 1256695

This bug was fixed in the package rsyslog - 7.4.4-1ubuntu2

---------------
rsyslog (7.4.4-1ubuntu2) trusty; urgency=low

  * debian/rsyslog.postinst: Make sure /var/log is owned by group syslog and
    is group-writeable (LP: #1256695).
  * Ensure that rsyslogd can create files in group adm, even when dropping
    group privileges to syslog (LP: #484336):
    - debian/patches/10-initgroups.patch: Try to set appropriate
      supplementary groups before dropping UID.
    - debian/rsyslog.postinst: Add syslog user to group adm.
