Segmentation fault. It only crashes when there are users in `w` output. [ Test Plan ] * Launch a noble vm. If run `w` doesn't show any user (for example the shell is launched by lxc exec), then run `login -f root` to populate a user in `w` output. * Install the version from -proposed, and run `w -hs`. It shouldn't crash. * Run other `w` options, like without `-s`, and combine `-s` with other options as well. They all shouldn't crash. [ Where problems could occur ] * The backported patch only affects the `w` utility in procps. The tests should cover most options of `w` utility. It may have regressions if we miss some tests for the options. [ Original description ] Running `w -hs` crashes. The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding procps.
