I agree. More to the point, do people really log in as root often, if at all? With a properly configured sudoers file, there should seldom be a need to log in as root. Not never, of course, but with such infrequency and so little disk use as to be negligible. -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xFFFCF67D : in Emacs 25.0.50.1 + Ma Gnus v0.16 + evil-git-ff74cfb : BBDB version 3.1.2 (2015-10-28 10:47:01+00:00)
