[Bug 1726545] Re: Gparted not working in Wayland Ubuntu
And in Ubuntu 19.04. This is getting old. Maybe wayland should relent from their purist stance (after all Unix always allowed root to do absolutely anything to the file system, and that's the keys to the kingdom). Maybe Ubuntu should accept the workaround GParted implements. But neither side wants to compromise their principals, resulting in a system that's not self-consistent. Meantime, I've implemented a SUDO wrapper that works for Gparted and other GUI apps, as advised by https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Running_GUI_applications_as_root#Using_xhost -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1726545 Title: Gparted not working in Wayland Ubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/1726545/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1726545] Re: Gparted not working in Wayland Ubuntu
The upstream GParted team added a work-around to version 0.30.0 to enable it to run seamlessly under Wayland. See https://gparted.org/news.php?item=214 Unfortunately the packager for Ubuntu decided to not use the --enable- xhost-root work-around. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/1737248 The consequence is that GParted only runs seamlessly on X, and not on Wayland. You might try petitioning the packager who made the decision. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1726545 Title: Gparted not working in Wayland Ubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/1726545/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello, I was wondering if this bug was fixed either on Gparted or on Ubuntu Wayland end?
