Package: gnunet
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Hello,
As announced in [0], su behavior will change.
contrib/init_gnunet_ubuntu in the gnunet source package executes commands
with su without quoting them or using su's -c option.
(I don't know if this file is used on Debian)
The patched version should be compatible with the old and future su.
You can find a login package in experimental if you want to test the
patch.
When the new login package will reach unstable, the severity of this bug
will be raised.

Kind Regards,
