Package: libvte9 Version: 0.28.1-2 Looks like libvte9 package is internally using an incorrect path for gnome-pty-helper. This causes libvte9 to fail recording utmp/login entries for terminals that use it.
$ dpkg -x ../libvte9_0.28.1-2_amd64.deb . $ strings usr/lib/libvte.so.9 | fgrep /gnome-pty-helper /usr/lib/vte/gnome-pty-helper $ ls -la usr/lib/vte/gnome-pty-helper ls: cannot access usr/lib/vte/gnome-pty-helper: No such file or directory $ find . -name gnome-pty-helper ./usr/lib/libvte9/gnome-pty-helper Workaround: # cd /usr/lib # ln -s libvte9 vte I encountered this bug on Ubuntu, but it clearly appears in Debian also, thus I am reporting it.
