| 1 | After upgrading to sys-apps/util-linux-2.33-r1, I can no longer find a |
| 2 | way to put literal backslash characters into /etc/issue properly. For |
| 3 | many years, '\\' in the issue file would result in a single backslash |
| 4 | being printed. I don't think this was ever documented; it's just the |
| 5 | natural way to escape backslash as a special character. I guess the |
| 6 | change is with agetty, but I don't know. Any ideas? |

| 8 | p.s.: Downgrading to util-linux-2.32-r4 got me the old behavior back. |
