utmps - a secure utmpx and wtmp implementation
----------------------------------------------
utmps is a library implementing the utmpx.h
family of functions, for use with C libraries that do not
implement them, such as musl - or that do implement them,
but in an insecure way, such as... all the other libcs.
Its particularity is that it does not use setuid or setgid
programs or files; it does not give random programs the right
to modify system-wide files. Instead, it comes with a daemon
that must be running for utmp account to be functional, and
that takes charge of the utmp data management itself; utmpx.h
primitives simply communicate with that daemon.
See https://skarnet.org/software/utmps/ for details.
