Bug#728363: Subject: kde-full: Starting synaptic in kde asks for root password when sudo installed and used.
Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer Hi! I really doubt this is a KDE bug. Is the window asking for root privileges using GTK or Qt/KDE? The title of the window is Run as root - KDE su ... If you don't know, a screenshot will certainly help. PrintScreen does not work ... As you indicate not knowing the cause of the problem I have done a tiny amount of research. The result is my request to you to reassign to package PolicyKit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#728363: Subject: kde-full: Starting synaptic in kde asks for root password when sudo installed and used.
Package: kde-full Version: 5:77+deb7u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, On a clean install (hard disk has had its partitions changed) I installed among others the base system, sudo, xorg, kde-full and synaptic. Because I installed and sudo, my machine does NOT have a ROOT password. Trying to start synaptic from the KDE menu results in a message box stating: 1. The action you requested needs root priviliges, which is correct. 2. Please enter the root's password ... which is incorrect when sudo is used. There is no root's password and entering the current user's password results in an invalid password error. The bottom line is that I cannot start synaptic from KDE. Trying to start synaptic from a shell results in error: (synaptic:3668): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0 -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages kde-full depends on: ii kde-plasma-desktop 5:77+deb7u1 ii kde-plasma-netbook 5:77+deb7u1 ii kdeadmin4:4.8.4-3 ii kdeartwork 4:4.8.4-5 ii kdeedu 4:4.8.4+5.77+deb7u1 ii kdegames4:4.8.4-3 ii kdegraphics 4:4.8.4+5.77+deb7u1 ii kdemultimedia 4:4.8.4-2 ii kdenetwork 4:4.8.4-1 ii kdepim 4:4.4.11.1+l10n-3 ii kdeplasma-addons4:4.8.4-1 ii kdeutils4:4.8.4+5.77+deb7u1 Versions of packages kde-full recommends: ii kde-standard 5:77+deb7u1 ii kdeaccessibility 4:4.8.4+5.77+deb7u1 ii kdesdk4:4.8.4+dfsg-1 ii kdetoys 4:4.8.4-1 ii kdewebdev 4:4.8.4-1 Versions of packages kde-full suggests: pn calligra none pn kde-l10n none ii xorg 1:7.7+3~deb7u1 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
