Title:
  can not invoked in shell

Status in mingetty package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Package: mingetty
  Version: 1.08-2
  Severity: normal

  The program works fine if it is invoked by init the default way.  But it exits with error when it is invoked by user's command line.
  I digged a little and found out it is the call to ioctl(fd,TIOCSCTTY,1) in open_tty(). 
  This bug was confirmed as #51756 and fixed in debian  bug track system. However, the added 'setsid()'  no longer exsists in 1.08-2 version.
