Bug Description
I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 dev and I'm noticing things logged to /var/log/upstart which may not be intended in this way. After deleting all logs and making a reboot I'm getting these things:
alsa-state.log with "alsa-state stop/pre-start, process 1063" and container-
I'm not sure why a stop/pre-start event is logged as it is very common and doesn't provide very useful information.
console-setup.log with "Loading /etc/console-
Maybe this could be intended but I'm not so sure about this too.
cryptdisks.log with " ...done.".
This log is incomplete and it looks the missing part is in /var/log/boot.log with " * cryptswap1 (starting).." and " * cryptswap1 (started)... [210G * Starting early crypto disks... [210G ". Maybe all content of /var/log/
mountall.log with "fsck von util-linux 2.20.1
/dev/sda1: sauber, 205747/9199616 Dateien, 16090003/36781311 Blöcke".
This looks more useful but I'm wondering if this shouldn't go better into /var/log/boot.log too.

It looks not intended that the same sysctl options are logged in 2 different files. Maybe it is even not intended to create any of these both logs.
Not a bug in upstart. The upstart logs contain whatever output the jobs in question generate.
