Package: elinks
Version: 0.11.3-6
Severity: normal
Seems like elinks uses real UID, so when you start for example elinks
with sudo it uses $HOME of real user, not /root.
Here are steps how to reproduce it:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd && whoami && pwd
ixti
/home/ixti
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -la | grep elinks
drwx------ 2 ixti ixti 4096 Апр 30 00:13 .elinks
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rm -rf .elinks/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo elinks
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -la | grep elinks
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Апр 30 00:15 .elinks
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ elinks

Hi Aleksey,

This is a property of sudo and not that of elinks. elinks just uses what it
gets in $HOME. For details seem sudo(8), specifically the -H option.
Hence closing this bug.
Cheers,
Giridhar
