I think that the updated
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NoDefaultSyslog#Dependencies
is a pretty good representation of the packages in the distribution that
actually might be affected.

It's basically the case that we've NEVER had good tools for dealing with
log messages. Epylog was the closest to interesting, but the devoper (hi
Konstantin!) lost interest. So, we've got a handful of little utilities.
We'll probably discover a few more than the above list, but I doubt that
there's even _two_ handfuls.
