Oh, I read too quickly :x And by the way didn't give the right command
switch that are --chuid --user and --env. These should give you the
result you wish. Should the program automatically set correct home and
user ? I'd say this could be great, so you may report it as a bug or,
more pobably, as a feature request.

I didn't know. Where did you find this ?

Thanks,
