Description
Impossible to user the super user app.
At the firt start after install, there is a notification about updating the super user app, when I click on it there is no way to update it any option gets an error.
I think there is the same problem even if we ignore that notification and try to do for instance a su command in the terminal emulator.
- Status changed from New to In Progress
Thanks for the report -- I've seen that as well. That's a problem that we will solve in the next release, sorry for the inconvenience.
i think you are seeing this problem because your phone isn't rooted. (?) the following guide worked for me, on my galaxy s2 with the replicant 4.0 0003 image installed.

i didn't follow the instructions to the letter (like using the 'unzip' command instead of downloading 7-zip, etc.) Your mileage may vary, i.e. things could go very wrong.
+1 on the Samsung Nexus S running 4.0 0003
I haven't tried the rooting instructions on the f-droid wiki but I also haven't run into any problems yet using the phone...maybe I'll just wait for the next release to clear this up.
This affects all devices in the last release. The next release will fix this up indeed.
