Title:
Logging out does not decrease the number of logged in users
Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gdm3 source package in Bionic:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Running GDM/GNOME 3.28 on Ubuntu 18.04.
1) Boot the system, login.
uptime shows 1 logged user.
2) Logout from GNOME and login again:
uptime shows 2 logged users, instead of 1.
3) Logout from GNOME and login again:
uptime shows 3 logged users, instead of 1.
And repeating the process shows the same results, incrementing the
number by 1 each time.
=======================
[ Impact ]
The number of logged users according to `uptime` grows and never goes
down
[ Test case ]
1. Login with your user and launch `uptime` from a shell
-> It should show "1 user"
2. Logout, and login again, then launch `uptime` again
-> It should show "1 user" again
3. Repeating the process, uptime users number should match the actual
number of logged in users
[ Regression potential ]
Nothing known so far, the fix is already in upstream branches (both
stable and unstable)
