Bug ID: 376624
Summary: [request] Integrate polkit actions to kio
Product: frameworks-kio
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: fa...@kde.org
Reporter: plusf...@gmail.com
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
At first I want to say that i'm not sure that kio is the right thing to request
this, but someone have sayd to me that everything filesystemrelated in KDE apps
is made by kio - so I hope thats the place.
Today i have seen this blog post:
https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2017/02/editing-files-as-root/ that you
can not start kate with sudo anymore. Thats a good thing I love it. But now
with sudoedit is what i really hate.
A Better solition would be that you can start the app as normal user and the
app itself (or the filedialog) will ask for the permissions to save this file,
when its outside your users directory.
workflow:
1. browser to the file
2. click on
3. it opens with kate
4. you edit the file
5. you click on "save" (or "save as" + browse to the location)
5a. It'll ask you for root permissions when needed
5. saved
--
My request is that functionality in 5a, that it'll automatically ask the user
for higher permissions, when they want to save something that don't belongs to
them.
