FYI ... a KDE specific solution... For those interested in the su-to-root. I noticed that KDE is (or was?) using a different mecanism to su-to-root... They introduced a statement in XDG menu file: | X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true Which obviously led to a bug in Debian when running those program in other desktop enironment, like : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=359962 Synaptics, kvpnc and other seems to use a hack like this : synaptic-kde.desktop | [Desktop Entry] | Exec=synaptic | X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true | OnlyShowIn=KDE; synaptic.desktop | [Desktop Entry] | Exec=su-to-root -X -c /usr/sbin/synaptic | NotShowIn=KDE; -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
