Details

Updated xterm packages that fix a bug are now available.

The xterm program is a terminal emulator for the X Window System. It
provides DEC VT102 and Tektronix 4014 compatible terminals for
programs that cannot use the window system directly.

This update fixes a bug that prevented xterm from writing entries to utmp.
The utmp file stores information about who is currently using the system.

All xterm users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
