Trixie's finger (0.17-17) seems to work fine for both forky and trixie, so I wonder what this bug report is about?
Utmp is a widely established convention on Unix amd Linux. If systemd doesn't support the traditional utmp db, then this is a choice done for systemd. Other tools and libraries included in Debian do. Excluding finger from forky because it does is not justified (IMHO). Why break tons of scripts and user expectations? Regards Harri
