This package seems to be there in Fedora. In AL2023, we only have rsyslog, which is not capable reading from specific journald namespaces. Please add.

Does not seem to be implemented in rsyslog.
rsyslog imjournal: rsyslog/rsyslog#4771
rsyslog omjournal: rsyslog/rsyslog#4421
Crude workaround with rsyslog: rsyslog/rsyslog#4771 (comment)_
Updating their build tool to compile an RPM is a headache. It needs a newer version of bison than what's available in AL2023, and one required dependency (ivykis) is not available at all. Several of the optional dependencies in the RHEL .spec are also not available in AL2023.
It also claims to need ccache, which is not available, but the process fails before it needs it I guess.
