@Hacker News 50 A problem I had is that the morons compiled systemd without UTMP support which broke among other things the rwho/rwhod protocol which is used by people on my network to find each other. I fixed by grabbing the source and recompiling with UTMP set, but this is the kind of stupid that upstreams shouldn't be doing, disabling perfectly good functionality because they don't like it.
