Hmmm... Martin, if you still have a Xorg.log it means you have a
really old installation, or you installed syslog-ng and integrated it
with journalctl, something that is not standard anymore. Heck,
OpenSUSE just removed it of Tumbleweed, it's a sign of the times.
That would only be true if systemd launched Xorg directly. Xorg writes
its log file on its own, not through syslog and not to the journal; I
can tell you that on my fully up-to-date system, at least, Xorg writes
to /var/log/Xorg.X.log (or to ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.X.log for
non-root Xorg).
You mean the contents of the xorg-server.install file?
post_upgrade() {
if (( $(vercmp $2 1.16.0-3) < 0 )); then
post_install
fi
}
post_install() {

Without root rights, log files will be in ~/.local/share/xorg/
directory.
Old behavior can be restored through Xorg.wrap config file.
See Xorg.wrap man page (man xorg.wrap).

xorg-server.install (END)
That was true for versions under 1.16.0-3 as evidenced by the version
comparison, but it is not true anymore, Xserver 1.17 dumps its logs to
syslog. And syslog is trapped by journalctl.
