Problem with python3 invoke library using runuser

[dcalap]

I have this basic python script test.py using invoke library:

#!/usr/bin/python3

from invoke import run

run('whoami')

And when I try to run it using runuser as root it fails.

Command executed:

runuser -l david -c '/home/david/test.py'

Stacktrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: [Errno 25] Inappropriate ioctl for device

Any idea?

Me too. I have 19 failed tests with this error when packaging invoke 2.1.0 for openSUSE/Factory.
