Set the LOGNAME from whoami
Well, $LOGNAME is defined by POSIX (see
a801c4c58902cae7b835d890487edc39bd7da142) but it's not appearing in
reality under clean environments:
~% env -i /bin/bash
mike:/home/mike$ echo $LOGNAME
mike:/home/mike$ exit
~% env -i /bin/dash
$ echo $LOGNAME
$ exit
~% env -i /bin/ksh
$ echo $LOGNAME
$ exit
~% env -i /usr/bin/zsh
~% echo $LOGNAME
mike
~% exit
Fall back to whoami(1) when $LOGNAME is not set.
Modify one of the tests to run with a restricted environment in order to
test this. I had tried modifying the test-driver to run all tests in a
restricted environment but the test-driver script is generated by
Automake.
Closes #165.
