When I use "mosh" ("mosh localhost" can be used for the test):
  • "loginctl" shows an associated line as expected, but TTY has
    no information, and IDLE is "no", which is incorrect.
  • "w" does not show an associated line.

Vincent Lefevre <vincent@vinc17.net> :

Same problem here, also with "last" and "who". As a result my
~/.bash_profile started to do weird things, because I make things there
based on the content of "who am i".

All this seems related to the general move to wtmpdb, as libutempter0
(which is used by mosh) is not using it itself.

Tom
