Nothing has changed with that version (note the "-UTMP"): ,---- | [~]$ systemctl --version | systemd 256 (256.7-3) | +PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +APPARMOR +IMA +SMACK +SECCOMP +GCRYPT -GNUTLS +OPENSSL +ACL +BLKID +CURL +ELFUTILS +FIDO2 +IDN2 -IDN +IPTC +KMOD +LIBCRYPTSETUP +LIBCRYPTSETUP_PLUGINS +LIBFDISK +PCRE2 +PWQUALITY +P11KIT +QRENCODE +TPM2 +BZIP2 +LZ4 +XZ +ZLIB +ZSTD +BPF_FRAMEWORK -XKBCOMMON -UTMP +SYSVINIT +LIBARCHIVE | | [~]$ grep utmp /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf || echo no hits | no hits `---- and given the fact that the change has been explicitly mentioned in systemd's Debian changelog I doubt that anything will change here. IOW, I do not consider this a systemd bug, but I'm curious about how Debian plans to handle the bigger utmp picture here. Please CC me in replies, as I'm not subscribed to the list. Thanks!
