Description of problem: who -m or who with two arguments does not give any output Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): coreutils-5.97-12.1.el5 How reproducible: 'who -m' Steps to Reproduce: 1. type "who -m" in konsole 2. "who am i" does not work either 3. Actual results: no output Expected results: Additional info:
Expected results: output for who -m like explained like it worked in older versions (who -m or who am i is also listed in who --help as a correct option)
It works for me with RHEL5 coreutils and i386 architecture. Could you please specify architecture on which are you running "who -m" or something specific on the system? Can't reproduce here.
it's funny, it works on gnome-terminal or console (ATL-F1) but not on konsole (KDE)?
may be the same problem: the command 'w' gives only the headline but not me as user: [ernpeter@bbl1lel5 home]$ w 17:29:25 up 77 days, 1:51, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.00 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT [ernpeter@bbl1lel5 home]$
Tried with KDE konsole (in Gnome, but it IMHO doesn't matter) and is working without troubles on my machine. Same with gnome-terminal, xterm and Linux console(alt-f1). It seems to be something specific on your system(bad paths for konsole, bad alias or something like that). I doubt that it is bug in coreutils.
Adding kdebase owner to cc as konsole is part of it. Maybe he can help with this problem.
What further infos can i provide for you to reproduce the problem?
Information which could be helpful: rpm -q kdebase system architecture(i386/x86_64/...) Is that reproducible on other machine you have? Is selinux active/which mode? For me is NOT reproducible on konsole/console/xterm/gnome-terminal with the version of coreutils you specified and i386 architecture. My kdebase is kdebase-3.5.7-1.fc6 (as you mentioned that the issue occured only in KDE konsole). I really doubt that the problem is in coreutils who ...
system architecture(i386/x86_64/...) uname -a: Linux bbl1lel5.bbl.ms.philips.com 2.6.18-8.1.1.el5xen #1 SMP Mon Feb 26 21:05:12 EST 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Is that reproducible on other machine you have? Yes, on all RHEL5 Is selinux active/which mode? SELINUX=disabled
rpm -q kdebase kdebase-3.5.4-13.5.el5
I was able to reproduce on RHEL5 with kdebase you mentioned. With newer konsole(kdebase) I'm not able to reproduce the bug, so I'm redirecting component to kdebase and adding me to cc. There is high similarity to bug 235972 , which is against FC-6 with similar versions to RHEL5.
it's fixed in kdelibs-3.5.4-16/kdebase-3.5.4-18
