Bug ID: 397016
Summary: Dolphin doesn't ask for root password when creating
links of files
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: david.cortes.riv...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
When trying to create a symlink between folders that require root access,
Dolphin would not ask for the root password before performing the operation -
instead, it will simply fail due to lack of permissions.
Steps to reproduce:
* Open two folders in which the user doesn't have write permissions (e.g.
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/ and /opt/google/chrome/).
* Drag and drop some file from one of the folders above to the other.
* When it asks what to do with it, select "Link here".
Expected behavior:
* Should ask for root password and create a link.
Actual behavior:
* Fails due to permissions
