mosh 1.4.0_2 doesn't update utmp

[sbromberger]

Is this a new report?

Yes

System Info

Void 5.19.0-26-generic x86_64 AuthenticAMD uptodate FF

Package(s) Affected

mosh_1.4.0_2

Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

there were a few old bug reports, but nothing current.

Expected behaviour

Mosh, when linked with libutempter, is supposed to write entries into utmp when connections are made. I have built mosh from source and also installed the package, and neither method logs to utmp.

Actual behaviour

I can confirm via strace that libutempter.so is being opened, but utmp is not being accessed.

Steps to reproduce

1. xbps-install mosh
2. mosh <host>
3. w or who
