Hi Jan,
CC systemtap upstream list, because I think this is not a great error
message.

It is a bit hard to say, because you didn't include journal.stap.
But I can replicate what you get with:
stap -v -e 'probe process("/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-journald").function("dispatch_message_real") { log ("hit"); }'
You get that error message if stap cannot find that function symbol.
So first that ^ carrot should really not be at "process", but at
"function" (or really "dispatch_message_real").
stap really should tell you how to get that symbol. By installing the
matching debuginfo package.
Right, so this is really the problem. The error message is simply wrong plus it doesn't say that the debug symbols actually don't match.
$ rpm -q systemd systemd-debuginfo
systemd-239-13.gitf4afb95.fc29.x86_64
systemd-debuginfo-239-3.fc29.x86_64
systemd-239-13.gitf4afb95.fc29.x86_64
systemd-debuginfo-239-3.fc29.x86_64
For some reason, I thought that the debuginfo matched the systemd version. Sorry about the misinformation. The fact that dnf considers these two versions a match and doesn't install the correct version is another issue.
Thank you for pointing me to the right direction.
