Package: finger
Version: 0.17-17
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: r...@pi.h5.or.at

Dear Maintainer, I am not even sure this is a bug in finger, maybe 
there is just crap in utmp/wtmp, and finger has no way of behaving 
differently, but as it is a segfault, I report it nevertheless.

finger segfaults on me, as in:
ralph@pi:~$ finger
finger: /dev//pts/6: No such file or directory
Login     Name              Tty      Idle  Login Time   Office     Office Phone

ralph     Ralph Aichinger   pts/2          Sep  1 12:17 (IP redacted)
Segmentation fault

while e.g. w or who work just fine
