Bug#452800: Old Bug renewed: rights of the tty are wrong
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Package: xterm
Version: 222-1etch2
Severity: normal
I have no clue why this happens again since xterm isn't updated for long
time.
When I start xterm I get:
mesg: error: tty device is not owned by group `tty'
~> ls -l `tty`
crw--w---- 1 klaus utmp 136, 10 2007-11-25 11:11 /dev/pts/10
If I chgrp of /usr/bin/xterm to tty it works well.
Is there any reason the xterm binary is group utmp? And then why is this
long fixed bug opened again?
