Control: retitle -1 coreutils: "who" should support wtmpdb (y2038) Control: severity -1 wishlist Control: tags -1 upstream
[Cc Luca Boccassi <bl...@debian.org> so that he gets aware of this issue. In short, "who" from coreutils still relies on utmp.] On 2024-09-20 11:39:55 -0300, Adilson dos Santos Dantas wrote: > I think that this bug should be closed since they re-enable utmp > support in systemd. Thanks for the information. I hadn't noticed this new systemd version as I had put the old working version on hold, and aptitude doesn't have a feature to signal new versions (and I was also busy at other things). I confirm that systemd 256.6-1 fixes the issue for "who". Rather than closing the bug, I've turned it into a wishlist, as in a longer term, I suppose that the change should be done. > systemd (256.6-1) unstable; urgency=medium [...] > [ Luca Boccassi ] > * Re-enable utmp support, tmux's autopkgtests require it.
