The Python/GTK3 GUI GameConqueror uses libscanmem for memory scanning
with /proc/$pid/mem or ptrace(). Root privileges are required because of
the Yama security module and its ptrace_scope set to 1.
To bypass that, scanmem/GC would have to run the target application.
That architecture change
At scanmem/GameConqueror we handle this like GParted. Setting this to
invalid as no other security model fits our need. Btw.: OpenSUSE Leap 15
managed to provide Wayland with proper pkexec permissions so that
GameConqueror runs unchanged on Wayland.
