Description Francois Joannette 2007-04-01 15:13:12 UTC
The following commands part of the  net-dialup/rp-pppoe-3.8 packages are broken:
pppoe-start, pppoe-stop, pppoe-status, pppoe-connect 

The bug displays "You must be root to run this script" when you uses then even if you're root. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge rp-pppoe USE="-X"
2.pppoe-start


Actual Results:  
Console message:"You must be root to run this script"
Impossible to set a dsl connection.


SOLUTION TO FIX IT:

It's simple. In all pppoe-* scipts, it refers to the "id" command located in /bin/id. It's instead in /usr/bin/id.

It just need to be set and everything is then good.

Please file ebuild bugs in the 'Gentoo Linux' product instead of Developer Relations.

Please search. Plus use baselayout instead of this deprecated cruft.
