System name: wolverine.mit.edu

Display type: XFree86 3.3.6a SVGA
Shell: /bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager: fvwm2
What were you trying to do?
Set my zephyr exposure level to 'none'
What's wrong:
Setting the exposure level to none enters all of my subscriptions
(such that zctl ret returns my full normal subscription list) and doesn't
display windowgram zephyrs. This effectively means that I am zephyrable
but will never see the incoming zephyrgrams.
What should have happened:
It should not have entered subscriptions for me.
Note that I believe I first encountered this bug way back when
when I first arrived at MIT and had no idea what sendbug was so
I suspect it lives somewhere in very old code.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
From the zctl man page:
none This completely disables Zephyr for the user.
The user is not registered with Zephyr. No user
location information is retained by Zephyr. No
---> login or logout announcements will be sent. No
---> subscriptions will be entered for the user, and
no notices will be displayed by zwgc(1)
