[WBEL-devel] /bin/su and /usr/bin/su

[Charles Lacour]

Since the web page still listed it as a problem, I'm reporting what I've found 
out so far about "su" being in both /bin and /usr/bin.

The problem is in the coreutils-4.5.3-26.i386.rpm file. That is the only file 
on WBEL that references either of those files, and it lists both.

The file list of WB's coreutils rpm and Red Hat AS 3.0 coreutils rpm differ 
only by the addition of /usr/bin/su to WB's. (WB has that one file added. 
Otherwise, they're identical.)

What's odd is that the source rpms are identical. That means it pretty much 
has to be either the environment it was compiled in, or the flags it was 
compiled with.

John, what did you use to compile that package? (I'm assuming rpmbuild, but I 
don't know what parameters you passed it, or if you edited any of the config 
files.)

I realize this is not exactly profound, in depth, research, but  I figured it 
would at least save someone the half-hour or so to get this far.
