[PATCH] utmp not getting updated if gnome-pty-helper dies before terminal
Last modified: 2005-08-04 23:35:42 UTC
If you run a few terminals under VNC, and just close the VNC session, then as well as the gnome-terminal processes getting killed, gnome-pty-helper gets killed and doesn't have the chance of cleaning up utmp.
Created attachment 50136 [details] [review] vte-0.11.10-gpty-vnc.patch Patch from Dave Lehman <dlehman@redhat.com> to attach a signal handler and clean up utmp on SIGTERM and SIGKILL.
Commited.
