Howdy, I'm reading your managing software with yum document and wanted to point out that there could be a problem with the examples that show 'su -c" some command"'. Su without the "-" or "- root" (e.g., "su -" or "su - root") will allow current environment settings to be inherited by the new root shell. This could lead to disaster if some root functions require specific settings that are NOT correct in the previous non-root environment.
