Subject: [PATCH] logger: remove trailing spaces when outputing to journal
Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2016 21:34:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160718203457.3911-1-kerolasa@iki.fi> (raw)

Issues:
1. Whitespace-ish \r is not stripped, while it should be.
2. In journal \r is considered unprintable.

Lennart: "it is the duty of the client side to drop the trailing whitespace,
which "logger" doesn't do".
