Rating:             important
References:         #697897

   An update that has one recommended fix can now be installed.

Description:


   A previous security update to coreutils changed su to start
   shells for "su
   -c" invocations in a separate session. As this caused
   interopability  issues, this update adds back the old
   behavior as a non-default option:

   * either via su -C , which is consistent with how su -c
   behaved before
   * or by exporting SU_C_SAME_SESSION=1 as an environment
   variable before running su(1).
