Hello everybody, kdesudo is a tool currently installed in Kubuntu that I believe still uses Qt/KDE 3 or at minimum Qt/KDE 4 libraries. The upstream (us, actually...) doesn't seem to have been committed to it since 2011, leaving users with a vulnerable kdesudo application (kdesu has had multiple CVEs issued against it). At this point I think it's more of a liability to maintain than to drop, and following the mail to drop Qt 4 in Debian Buster[1], I would like to request feedback and see if anyone plans on resurrecting kdesudo or if we should just use kdesu from now on (maybe provide a symlink for compatibility) and drop kdesudo.
Thoughts? (Am I missing something?) [1] https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2017/08/msg00006.html -- Simon Quigley [email protected] tsimonq2 on freenode and OFTC 5C7A BEA2 0F86 3045 9CC8 C8B5 E27F 2CF8 458C 2FA4
