Package: kpackage
Version: 4:3.2.2-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

when I install a package using kpackage, the program asks me for the
root password. My root passwords are so ugly that they cannot be
remembered.

Please consider adding support for other root gaining methods, for
example sudo. That way, I would only need to enter my user password if
sudo is appropriately configured.

Greetings
Marc

Hi!

I don't know how long this option has existed, but settings > configure 
kpackage > misc allows you to set 'sudo' as root command

/Sune

How could I overclock the jumper over a program from DOS 8.2?

From Windows you neither should send to a OpenGL proxy, nor have to telnet on 
the file.
