Thanks to the kind person who sent me:

-------->8<--------

root@lol ~ # zcat /usr/share/doc/util-linux/NEWS.Debian.gz
util-linux (2.40.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * last(1) has been split off to the wtmpdb package.
    If you find last(1) useful, please install wtmpdb and accept the default
    PAM configuration changes from libpam-wtmpdb.
  * lastb(1) is removed. Please see syslog/journal for failed login attempts.
