Package: general Version: N/A; reported 2001-01-06 Severity: important After I upgraded from potato to woody on an i386 machine, I observed a strange sympton
I login as root. It doesn't matter where, console, X or from network... When I check the environment, normal user environment is present. If I run apt-get upgrade for instance the program will complain that path doesn't have the *sbin directories which is the way it should be. The quickest way to fix it is to type # su and then I can run any root process without errors on this child shell. I observed the exact error on another installation while upgrading from slink to potato so I presume this is a bug which has not been addressed yet. I had then thought this was a "feature" not a "bug" but now I'm certainly sure it's a bug because the machines I installed from scratch *never* show this behaviour.
