Details

This is an Arch counterpart bug of [1].

Systemd 250 changed its getty@ unit file in systemd/systemd@b4bf900 to call agetty with stdin ("-") port as apparently the kernel could have pontentially reset ttys otherwise. This means that any distribution running systemd will now not display the tty device name at the login prompt, but a dash symbol instead (systemd/systemd#21919).

Once this gets fixed in the upstream, please consider cherry-picking the fix.
