Package: acct Version: 6.6.4-2 Followup-For: Bug #864242 In my case I see that although I have logrotate installed, its wtmp configuration is such that the rotation happens only if its size exceeds 1 MB and therefore its rotation may not happen for quite a few months and only /var/log/wtmp will exist. I believe this is the out of the box configuration.
Maybe there should be a final fallback to /var/log/wtmp, so at least something is produced, although it won't be monthly totals, but since-the-last-wtmp-rotation totals. That may be better than nothing. In any case, there should be some else branch if no form of wtmp.1 was found, so that the rest of the script won't end up operating on empty WTMP string resulting in cron mails with errors. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.4.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages acct depends on: ii libc6 2.29-10 ii lsb-base 11.1.0 acct recommends no packages. acct suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
