Public bug reported:
The man page of vgetty says:
vgetty is not meant to be run from the command line. It should be run from the
/etc/inittab file so it can respawn after each call. Here is
a typical inittab entry:
S0:345:respawn:/usr/sbin/vgetty ttyS0
But no inittab found in Ubuntu 12.04.
So no respawn when a phone call is received.
Conclusion: Only one phone-call reception. After that, the program ends.
Please install mgetty-voice correctly.
