Package: apt-listchanges Version: 2.79 Severity: normal Because apt needs to run as root, apt-listchanges runs as root, and runs the browser as root. I'd like to run the browser as my user, so that it picks up my normal settings, opens up a new tab in any existing browser I have open, and does not clutter ~root with dotfiles for programs that should not run as root. Please consider launching the browser as a designated user instead, such as $SUDO_USER (available if using sudo), or $APT_LISTCHANGES_USER (which I could set to `id -un` in ~/.bashrc).
