Package: splitvt
Version: 1.6.6-7
Severity: serious
The use of Splitvt on (not only) my i386 machine corrupts
the register kept in /var/run/utmp, since it false removes
the originally registered tty session.
The following experiment is made on the machine with only
a single virtual terminal session, no graphics since that
would generate further PTYs and thus disturb the observation.
Fresh start, a single virtual terminal session:
mats@kolben:~ $ w
11:14:06 up 33 min, 1 user, load average: 0,00, 0,01, 0,02
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
mats tty1 10:58 1.00s 0.65s 0.01s w
Then Splitvt is started. In one subwindow, a simple command:
mats@kolben:~ $ w
11:14:58 up 34 min, 2 users, load average: 0,00, 0,00, 0,01
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
mats pts/0 11:14 0.00s 0.25s 0.01s w
mats pts/1 11:14 18.00s 0.25s 0.25s /bin/bash
Exit from both subwindows, thus exiting Splitv:
mats@kolben:~ $ w
11:15:18 up 34 min, 0 users, load average: 0,00, 0,00, 0,01
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
Empty, void, a terminal no-more, an ex-terminal, ...
Still I am able to continue working. It is only by exiting this
virtual terminal and login again that the utmp-register is updated
to display the correct session "tty1" again. This is a serious defect,
but it does not prevent any productive work. Therefore it has gone
unnoticed.
Best regards,
Mats Erik Andersson, DM
