Bug#892601: kde-cli-tools: kdesu hangs after password input
Package: kde-cli-tools
Version: 4:5.12.1-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I tried to launch partitionmanager, and after I entered the root passowrd, well - nothing happend,
the password input form stopped reacting on any buttons. After some research I found, that the source of the
problem was /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kf5/kdesu - it displays passowrd input form, but after you input
the passowrd (be it correct or not) it just hangs and does nothing.
So:
What I expect:
--I enter "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kf5/kdesu" "-c KDE_FULL_SESSION=true XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000 DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus partitionmanager --dontsu".
Partitionmanager (or any other program) is launched with administrative privileges.
What I get:
kdesu hangs
