Bug#797008: xterm: not logging to utmp

[Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com>]

Package: xterm
Version: 319-1
Severity: normal

Apparently since the latest xterm version 319-1 which arrived on my
Sid machine 2015-08-23 14:52 -0600 xterm no longer logs entries to the
utmp file.  Using "last -10" shows the most recent entries to have
been logged prior to that update.  Even explicitly adding +ut does not
log to utmp.

  xterm +ut

Downgrading to 318-2 fixes the problem.

Thank you for maintaining xterm in Debian.

Thanks,
Bob
