Package: systemd Version: 241-7~deb10u4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Recently, I had a power loss on one of my machines. After the reboot, wtmp contained the following entries: $ last reboot reboot system boot 4.19.0-12-amd64 Tue Nov 3 09:09 still running reboot system boot 4.19.0-12-amd64 Mon Oct 19 14:54 still running reboot system boot 4.19.0-11-amd64 Sat Sep 26 12:27 - 14:54 (23+02:26) The previous reboot is still listed as "running", while it should have been updated.
wtmp is a SysV compat interface and systemd simply tries to emulate the old SysV behavior here. It is my understanding that under sysvinit, if you had a forced power off/reboot, /var/log/wtmp wasn't updated as well. I don't think it makes sense to change this old SysV init behavior and diverge in systemd.
Regards, Michael
