Finiteness conjecture for logarithmic class groups of real quadratic fields

From papers

Let KK be a given real quadratic field. For a prime \ell, let the \ell-group of logarithmic classes of KK be the \ell-primary subgroup of its logarithmic class group.

Finiteness conjecture. There are only finitely many primes \ell for which the \ell-group of logarithmic classes of KK is nontrivial.

This conjecture contrasts with the heuristic expectation, discussed for imaginary quadratic fields, that infinitely many such primes may occur. The supplied text gives no resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
