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.
