Hi,
Is su actually used for running graphical apps? Most people seem to use gksu
for that. But gksu --help shows a weird warning about using -l argument:
--login, -l
Make this a login shell. Beware this may cause
problems with the Xauthority magic. Run xhost
to allow the target
The suggestion below, that the core issue is that "su" is leaking the
user-space env variables into the root shell, where they are then used to
clobber the user-space, seems like a good root-cause analysis of the bug.
