In this context I'd say it should do so if XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is set in the callers environment and it shouldn't start a login shell, i.e. isn't called with '-'.
in my tests it did not matter much how ended up with 'root' privileges: su, gnomesu, xdg-su, "su -"; => they all resolved in the same issue. Assigning to pth, as coreutils maintainer. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

su unset XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
This does not work for me - no difference at all.
in my tests it did not matter much how ended up with 'root' privileges: su, gnomesu, xdg-su, "su -"; => they all resolved in the same issue.
That's what I see here as well. I am starting thunar and there are minor differences: su will allow a few click to navigate through directories, gnomesu and others open the root version of the window in frozen state. Please let me know if this bug will be solved in near future. I feel some instability in the system, such as I can't install Cadsoft's eagle. My feeling is that some files/dirs can't be accessed.

Frederic, as youre much better versed in GNOME stuff, do you have an idea how to solve this issue?
I think DimStar suggestion should be followed and some specific variable (XDG_RUNTIME_DIR) should be cleared when changing user. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
