Hi Ryan, Thank you for the information. It was new to me.
I can understand people wanting that utmp functionality, and I guess spawning the extra process is the way to handle this. However, on a system of which I am the only user, I am not really interested in that functionality. Is it not possible to configure the package so that the end user may choose if he wants that functionality or not? I am the kind of person that, when having several options available, I go for the solution that: i. gives me all the functionality I want/use ii. allows me to opt out of the functionality I do not want, without adding extra 'bloat'. Until I find a better solution, I get rid of the extra process by running the commands chgrp root /usr/bin/urxvt chmod g-s /usr/bin/urxvt Which, of course, I will have to repeat every time after installing a new version of the package. Regards, Jean-Pierre
