Hi, uutils mainteners

looks like uutils pinky completly broken, i tried it

relunsec@relunsec:~/software/coreutils/target/debug$ ./pinky
Login    Name                TTY       Idle   When             Where

no output at all, i not expected that even while the gnu pinky works fine

relunsec@relunsec:~/software/coreutils/target/debug$ gnupinky
Login    Name                 TTY      Idle   When             Where
relunsec RelunSec            ?seat0    ?????  2026-06-06 02:55 :0

it is an interesting bug, i do'nt known where it originates from? why gnu pinky outputs login info but uutils pinky no output at all
