Subject: vmspawn: Prefer systemd-journal-remote from $PATH
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=408d474dfa1a320cfa650b7624f9efdf55f639f2;p=thirdparty%2Fsystemd.git

vmspawn: Prefer systemd-journal-remote from $PATH

$PATH might point to a systemd checkout containing
a newer version of systemd-journal-remote which we
should use, hence prefer an executable from $PATH
over the one from /usr/lib/systemd.
