Subject: iotop: Falsely reports CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT not enabled in kernel
Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2022 19:52:10 -0500
Package: iotop
Version: 0.6-24-g733f3f8-1.1
Severity: normal

With recent bookwork kernel builds, iotop incorrectly reports
`CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT not enabled in kernel`. This seems to have been
fixed upstream: https://repo.or.cz/iotop.git/commit/ab35334d374e588bec12d201fb8869c536f0545d

Workaround: sudo sysctl -w kernel.task_delayacct=1

Other workaround: uninstall this package and install iotop-c instead
