Description Dan Noe 2003-02-12 01:28:06 UTC
The aterm ebuild is compiled with utmp writing support, yet is not install SGID
utmp and cannot write to utmp.  I simply SGID the aterm executable myself, but
there should at least be a note at the end of the ebuild explaining this. 
Otherwise aterm mysteriously refuses to write to utmp.
