--- Begin Message ---Package: xterm Version: 208-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi, When running xterm on GNU/Hurd systems, one gets open ttydev: No such device or address The problem is the way xterm sets the controlling terminal: main.c:3395: if ((ttyfd = open(ttydev, O_RDWR)) >= 0) { And then xterm tries to open /dev/tty, and here it fails. Indeed, POSIX says that `If a session leader has no controlling terminal, and opens a terminal device file that is not already associated with a session without using O_NOCTTY option (see open()), it is implementation-defined whether the terminal becomes the controlling terminal of the session leader.' And indeed, on GNU systems, along definition of O_NOCTTY in fcntl.h one can read ` `open' never assigns a controlling terminal in GNU. '. So here is a proposed patch, please forward upstream.
