Marking this as Normal (or maybe Low?) severity on Noble since it's only
relevant for armhf users that upgrade from a previous system *and* still
use utmp/wtmp. We have drop utmp support in pam in Noble, leaving us
with last(1)/lastb(1)/lastlog(1)/faillog(1) as the main consumers of
those files in the archive (w(1) now queries logind by default).

The plan will be to move the "corrupted" files generated by the Noble
versions out in utmp.old files in the libc6 postinst and just start from
fresh.
