The draft release-notes for trixie do have some information on this,
https://www.debian.org/releases/trixie/release-notes/issues.en.html#things-to-be-aware-of-while-upgrading-to-releasename

but it we dont mention who(1) at all - should we say it continues to work?
(im not sure if it matters enough?)

https://manpages.debian.org/testing/coreutils/who.1.en.html stills refer
to /var/run/utmp - not sure if that is just a documentation bug of if
who is broken too ('who' doesnt return anything in a chroot for me)?
