About acct

From Debian's package description

GNU Accounting Utilities is a set of utilities which reports and summarizes data about process execution statistics and user connect times.

"Process accounting" provides summaries of system resource usage based on the commands executed on the system. "Login accounting" provides summaries of system resource usage based on connect time.

The 'last' command is provided by the wtmpdb package and not included here. The 'ac' login accounting tool is not effective on current Debian systems since the transition to wtmpdb but can be used for forensic purposes.

From Debian's description of the acct package, under that package's license.
