Description Bernhard Wiedemann 2009-01-20 07:22:12 UTC 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.19) Gecko/20081213 SUSE/1.1.14-1.1 SeaMonkey/1.1.14

running "you" as root causes yast2 online_update to run twice
This might be related to the fact, that there are no updates available when I do this.
I found that "you" is defined as an alias in /etc/bash.bashrc
It is defined the same on openSUSE-11.0 but I checked that yast2 does not return an error code to the caller on 11.0.

I propose to change the alias to
alias you='test "$EUID" = 0 && ( /sbin/yast2 online_update || true ) || su - -c "/sbin/yast2 online_update "'


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. in a terminal: su -
2. you
3. Cancel
Actual Results:  
after Cancel, yast2 online_update pops up again

Expected Results:  
after Cancel, it should just close as openSUSE-11.0 did.

you are right about that alias
