root console not changing color of user to red when in root. #68

Closed crhy closed 3 years ago

crhy commented 3 years ago

all white does not make it clear that you are in root.

sudo su Password:

User all white, no red.

Agreed but not a release blocker. I'll add an item so we can look at it for 20.2.

This is probably upstream, no? Do we have a way to tag upstream directly from these reports?

clefebvre commented 3 years ago

It is upstream. When it was red in Mint (in the past) it was already colorless in Ubuntu. What happened is that we aligned with upstream to get closer to them and deviate less on this. I do like it red better myself, but sometimes it's good to not differ when it's not really needed.

I can't remember if it was "ever" red in Ubuntu though... it might be a design choice on their side.
