  Description     : manage files as administrator using the admin:// KIO protocol

kio-admin implements a new protocol admin:// which gives administrative access
to the entire system. This is achieved by talking, over dbus, with a root-level
helper binary that in turn uses existing KIO infrastructure to run file://
operations in root-scope. Or simply put: admin:// is exactly like file:// but
redirected over dbus to gain administrative privileges.

This package will be maintained under the Debian Qt/KDE Team’s umbrella.
