logging-in as su acting unexpectedly
by dwlamb from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6Q8PJ)
Trying to used `sudo su` at a command prompt is yielding unexpected results.
Executing `sudo su` at a prompt yields
`[sudo] password for daniel: `
as it should.
Entering my password yields:
`su: failed to execute xxxxxxxxx: No such file or directory`
'xxxxxxxxx' substituted for the command result echos the password entered.
To my memory `sudo su` should return a prompt for my password. Once provided, the terminal should enter into a super user command prompt.
My system is Kubuntu 22.04 and the terminal is the default Konsole.
