Does anyone else's /etc/profile have the following line:

Code:

if [ "$LOGNAME" = 'root' ]

Because it breaks my su bash prompts and konsole root's (sbin stuff is not in the path). I changed it back to:

Code:

if [ `/usr/bin/whoami` = 'root' ]

and everything works again.

If this is the new standard, could this problem be taken into consideration?

Thanks.
