agetty allows to pass "-" as tty port argument and in this case it assumes that its stdin is already connected to a tty. However instead of figuring out the real name of "-", it keeps "-" as tty name internally which leads to uses of '\l' specifier in /etc/issue being substituted with '-', which is not meaningful. Can this be fixed so when "-" is passed as argument to agetty, '\l' in /etc/issue is substituted with the actual name of the tty device being connected ? Thanks.
