The reason that you have to make these changes to rsyslog.conf and
journal.conf is that rsyslog is set up to get journal logs by default
via its imjournal module. So your changes aren't necessary; unless
there's a bug.
Depends on which release. Certainly Fedora 21 has done away
with rsyslog completely and everything is journald, you really
do need to do all those to make rsyslog work again (and it has
the excellent side effect of completely turning off all the
binary journal files, basically just using journald as a
proxy to forward everything to rsyslog).
