We've added this to our svn, but with the pending unmasking of baselayout-2 we probably won't be making any more baselayout-1 fixes.

baselayout-1.12.13 breaks non-root status checks, reopening.

The attached patch replaces the broken check in /sbin/runscript.sh using Bash3's "=~" operator.

Actually, the change is already in SVN, as indicated in bug #295657. The problem is that there hasn't been any release since that fix. Could we get one?
