#1487: unix package: test needed for getLoginName
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------

Severity: normal | Keywords:

Testcase: | Architecture: Unknown
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
I disabled the test for `getLoginName` in unix/tests/user001 because
`getLoginName` cannot be called unless stdin is a terminal, which it isn't
during an unattended build. Perhaps we can test this by setting up a
pseudoterminal first, but that requires the pty patches which aren't in
yet.
