Package: gnome-nettool Version: 2.20.0-1 Severity: normal When I start gnome-nettool as a normal user, and try to use the traceroute tab, the following happens: Trace button turns red, status bar looks as if the program does something, and then nothing. No error message whatsoever.
Only when I start gnome-nettool from a terminal I get the following message in the terminal: The specified type of tracerouting is allowed for superuser only Most users using gnome-nettool will not start it from the terminal and will therefore be confused. *And* there are ways of tracerouting that normal users are allowed to do. Why are these not used?
