Package: sux
Version: 1.0.1-5
Severity: normal

The sux(1) man page says,
"""
'sux user' and 'sux - user' behave just like su but 
transfer $DISPLAY and the X cookies.
"""
While one could, strenuously, interpret this to mean that
both 'sux user' and 'sux - user' should behave like 'su user',
I find the interpretation that sux should behave like su in 
both cases (i.e. 'sux - user' should behave like
'su - user') much more intuitive and useful.

However, it seems the current version disagrees.

Thanks,
        Shai.
