I entirely agree that this is utterly hateful. (For one thing, the idea that there's a strong relationship between living in a */sbin directory and requiring superuser privileges is clearly nonsense.) But the Bash source doesn't seem to contain relevant chunks of that message, so I fear that, if you want to correctly apportion blame, you should probably look elsewhere. If I wanted to do that myself, I'd start by seeing if SUSE (Yast is a SUSE-ism, right?) has a custom Bash patch which adds that behaviour. But I think doing so would probably just expose me to more software hatefulness, so I'm not going to bother. -- Aaron Crane ** http://aaroncrane.co.uk/
