Bug ID: 452532
Summary: kdesu not working after upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04 to
22.04
Product: frameworks-kdesu
Version: 5.92.0
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: gzabdo...@mozmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. use kdesu
2. enter root password
3. enter either password or user password
OBSERVED RESULT
Kdesu was working fine before updating from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04. Now it
complains "The action you requested needs root priviliges. Please enter root's
passoword below or click Ignore to continue with your current privileges." and
asks for another password.
EXPECTED RESULT
krusader or any app should run as root
they do fine when run from CLI as root using kdesu, but not from other user
which it errors "org.kde.kdesu: Daemon not safe (not sgid), not using it." I
tried to `chmod g+s` both the `which kdesu` and the symlinked target with no
success.
