Thank you for your report. But the 'su' command is not part of bash but is actually implemented by several other packages. So the first step would be to determine exactly which version of su you are using. I find it easiest to use the bash type command to determine this. Here is the result on my machine. type su su is hashed (/bin/su) If that is the GNU coreutils version of 'su' then it will respond to the --version option. If it is the util-linux version then it won't. su --version su (GNU coreutils) 6.0-cvs Or it might say: su --version su: unrecognised option `--version' If you are using a distribution based system then more information may be determined by querying your package manager. For example: On a dpkg based system: dpkg -S /bin/su login: /bin/su On a rpm based system: rpm -qf /bin/su coreutils-5.2.1-31.1 Other systems will have other methods but these examples should provide you with the idea behind them. If you are using a distro based system then it is probably best to make your bug report directly to them as the 'su' command tends to be very system specific.
