Re: [Linux] Just-in-time su/sudo quits too early before entering password

[Alistair Crooks <agc%pkgsrc.org@localhost>]

The copy-paste shows that SU_CMD is set to /usr/bin/su, not sudo.

Looking at your mk.conf file, you have a period after "exists" in the
place where you set SU_CMD. Remove that period.
