/bin/sh illegal option -p when using pam_namespace.so
To manage notifications
The attached patch removes the -p option from the shebang line of
/etc/security/namespace.init and fixes this bug. The effect of the -p
option with bash is to not reset the effective UID to match the real UID
if they are different, but this is the default behavior if bash is
invoked as /bin/sh.
This comes from the /etc/security/namespace.init file. Feel free to
edit the file to be correct, changes will be preserved on upgrade. If
you get this working to your satisfaction, patches will be welcome.
