Package: netstd
Version: 1.17-1

Firstly, it cannot cope with X logins if /dev/:0 nonexistent.  It
shouldn't complain that the tty listed in the utmp file doesn't
exist.

Secondly, it seems to report that the login times it shows in the long
per-user output are GMT, when in fact they are BST.

See the transcripts below.

Ian.
