Bug Description
Binary package hint: acct
dump-utmp's man page says that its output fields are "user name, tty, type, id, pid, hostaddr, host, time", separated by '|'. Indeed, in lucid, a sample record of 'dump-utmp /var/log/wtmp' looks like this(spaces omitted):
foo|pts/
(this is with:
$ apt-cache policy acct
acct:

In maverick, however, the output of the same command is missing the 6th field! (No changes in the man page)
