Hi Walter,

I updated security and recommended packages. This did not help. In a
terminal I ran "sleep 3; whiptail --msgbox foo 7 20" and in another
terminal I observed the logs. No entry was added. (I moved the mouse to
create an event that brings up whiptail). You find the logs as
attachment.

In the case I did not mention already, other flavours of linux do not
show this issue. It seems to be specific to lubuntu 18.04. For this
email I just tried a daily build of lubuntu (eoan-desktop-amd64.iso). It
does not show this issue.

Walter, from my position it does not make much sense to search for the
reason until nobody else observes this behavior.

Kind regards
Oliver
