In particular, both $USER and $LOGNAME are set to root after sudo -s. There is at least one annoying side effect of this: kernel build user mentioned is always 'root'. In this case the only reliable way to get logged-in user name is /usr/bin/logname. Following patch utilizes it. >How-To-Repeat: For example, using old-way kernel compile: sudo -s cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf config GENERIC cd ../../compile/GENERIC make vers.c grep compile vers.c >Fix: Index: newvers.sh =================================================================== RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh,v retrieving revision 1.44.2.24 diff -u -r1.44.2.24 newvers.sh --- newvers.sh 16 Jun 2002 00:31:54 -0000 1.44.2.24 +++ newvers.sh 4 Aug 2002 15:30:14 -0000 @@ -85,7 +85,8 @@ fi touch version -v=`cat version` u=${USER-root} d=`pwd` h=`hostname` t=`date` +u=`/usr/bin/logname` +v=`cat version` u=${u-root} d=`pwd` h=`hostname` t=`date` cat << EOF > vers.c $COPYRIGHT char sccspad[32 - 4 /* sizeof(sccs) */] = { '\\0' }; >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
