--- Comment #29 from Alex Atkinson <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Mike from comment #28) > I suggest making a new group for this, putting root in it... then packages, > I.E. pipewire, can put their user in it... or some other way packages can > grow this mask. The question I have on the [PR](https://invent.kde.org/plasma/drkonqi/-/merge_requests/373) is which KDE components, if any, run as root... I would be surprised if any. My sysadmin brain says it should be explicitly denied (as intended with the PR that introduced _this bug_), but here we have this scenario where drkonqi was running as root -- as seen with at least OpenSUSE and Kubuntu. While my above posted "fix" solves for this bug while preserving the drkonqi for root, I would more strongly suggest simply disabling drkonqi for root. This would align the distros with KDE's design choice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
