Thanks Ansgar,
I did not know setpriv, I will test if it can replace su-exec on my
containers.
Probably the main reason could be binary size on certain small
systems/containers:
$ du -sh /usr/sbin/gosu
2.3M /usr/sbin/gosu
$ du -sh /usr/bin/setpriv
52K /usr/bin/setpriv
$ du -sh /usr/bin/su-exec
16K /usr/bin/su-exec
Best Regards,
Matteo

This is an alternative to gosu written in C.
In Debian the essential util-linux package already provides "setpriv".
Is there any reason to use su-exec instead of it?
