Apps using libsu do not work on root solutions like APatch.

[nitanmarcel]

I've been redirected here from the APatch repository regarding an issue with libsu not being able to normally function.

This issue persist over any apps that uses this library, and it seems to be related specifically to libsu.

Your issue looks like something potentially is wrong with your ProGuard configuration, but we're also seeing an issue where isAppGrantedRoot always returns false on APatch specifically

Same problem on android 14

Would an update be possible?

isAppGrantedRoot is always false on KernelSU and APatch. This method looks for a file but su is not a real file in those

Workaround is to use

        try {
            Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su --version");
            return true;
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "su": error=2, No such file or directory
            return false;
        }

Works fine on KernelSU, provided the app is whitelisted in the manager. It's APatch specifically that (not tested with the recent 6.0.0 release) that always insists it does not have root or crashes.
