Subject: su-common.c: prefer ENV_SUPATH over ENV_ROOTPATH
X-Git-Tag: v2.34-rc1~165
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=86f42e5a2a9d8a483ad0ca85fdf090172fb4d385;p=thirdparty%2Futil-linux.git

su-common.c: prefer ENV_SUPATH over ENV_ROOTPATH

ENV_SUPATH and ENV_ROOTPATH are equivalent and ENV_ROOTPATH takes
precedence in both login and su. It makes no sense. More logical would be
precedence of ENV_SUPATH in su and ENV_ROOTPATH in login.
