[Bug 543140] New: urxvt-unicode doesn't update utmp/wtmp
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=543140 Summary: urxvt-unicode doesn't update utmp/wtmp Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: X11 Applications AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: nils.beckmann@gcon.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090909 SUSE/3.5.3-1.2 Firefox/3.5.3 urxvt from urxvt-unicode doesn't update [u|w]tmp by default (maybe because it hasn't the proper rights). making it sgid fixes this. But how does i.e. gnome-terminal do it. It isn't s[g|u]id anything but updates [u|w]tmp. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start urxvt +ut 2.enter: who am i -or- last Actual Results: 3. see nothing (who) -or- no entry for the current shell (last) Expected Results: 4. see "who i am" -or- see an entry in the list of last log{ins,outs} do chgrp tty `which urxvt` 5. do chmod g+s `which urxvt` 5. start urxvt 6. 'who am i' or 'last' behaves like expected -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I couldn't find an obvious link to the patch but Google unearthed this: http://fedora.lowlatency.de/review/urxvt-utempter.patch Maybe I'll try to rebase it on the latest release, since I'm probably one of two people in the world who cares. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
