[Bug 1443052] Re: User accounts login history showing incorrect history

 

** Description changed:

  I have found that in "System Settings > User Accounts" that if you
  select an account and then select the button called "History" (which is
  meant to show the login history for that account), it will show you when
  you last logged in as "Session Started", but it will show that you
  "Session Ended" just before you login the next time.
  
  To clarify what I mean, let's say that yesterday I logged into my
  account on this machine at 14:29, and then sometime near 23:00 I logged
  out, and then this morning I logged into my account somewhere around
  11:20, it will show this:
  
-         Yesterday, 14:29 Session Started
-         Today 11:19 Session Ended
-         Today 11:20 Session Started
+         Today 11:20 Session Started
+         Today 11:19 Session Ended
+         Yesterday, 14:29 Session Started
  
  So it assumes that the last session ended when you log into a new one,
  so the bug seems to be that it does not log when a session ends
  properly, and only logs it when a new session starts.
  
  I have attached a screenshot to show my example as I see it in the
  History GUI.
  
  This bug was also present when I was using 14.04.
