The maintainer replied to my report. See below. Suggest you hold off on changes 'til Monday. R. 4.0.14 was version when I start rewrite su for use getopt_long() and start make shadow su GNU su compliant. All this work was finished in current CVS tree which will be reelased as 4.0.15 in next monday (13.02.2006). Before all this changes shadow su was not widely used (and usable). kloczek P.S. Why does the English(UK) Thunderbird spell-checker think that 'Beekmans' is a miss-spelling of 'Workmanship'. Is it a complement? Is also suggests 'Brinkmanship' though. :) -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
