And provided nobody cared to fix this upstream... 2) this might not be reproducible (due to switch to systemd or any other change in those 15 years). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I think the issue is still valid. I have tried several times to upstream it, no reply though.

I found this: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-console/msg00218.html Could you resend with proper "Signed-off-by:" (you should sign a patch when forwarding) and To:+Cc fields?
