Hey,

That's a call for help,feedback,comment on lightdm bug #870297 [1]:
"Lightdm logins not being logged in wtmp"

From the comments and feedback that seems like an issue that should be
fixed in the lts, there is a merge request proposed to fix it on:
https://code.launchpad.net/~lotheac/lightdm/utmpx/+merge/107739

The lightdm project has been trying to avoid adding code "just because
it's this way for 25 years" but trying to understand if things still
make sense on a modern linux distribution rather and that's where we
need your help.

Does anyone knows if:
- utmp and wtmp support is still important?
- if those are "speced" or described in a reference document somewhere?
- if the login manager is the right place to record those entries?

Review of the previous listed merge request from people who know about
the topic would be welcome as well

Thanks,
Sebastien Bacher
