* Package name : nautilus-admin Version : 0.1.1 Upstream Author : Bruno Nova <brunomb.n...@gmail.com> * URL : https://bitbucket.org/brunonova/nautilus-admin * License : GPL Programming Lang: Python Description : Extension for Nautilus to do administrative operations Nautilus Admin is a simple Python extension for the Nautilus file manager that adds some administrative actions to the right-click menu: - Open as Administrator: opens a folder in a new Nautilus window running with administrator (root) privileges. - Edit as Administrator: opens a file in a Gedit window running with administrator (root) privileges. I'm the upstream author. The extension uses policy kit (pkexec) to open nautilus/gedit as root. Since it opens those programs as root, I would highly recommend a code review (it's a short code). I created this extension because nautilus-gksu is no longer available. This is certainly a useful extension, and there are probably many users that want an "Open as Administrator" action in Nautilus (including me). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
