[Bug 461271] Re: zenmap not installed to menus properly
Hello everyone, The main problem with these files: /usr/share/applications/zenmap.desktop /usr/share/applications/zenmap-root.desktop It's the wrong path declared inside them. When I edited them to get rid this part in each (wrong) line: /build/buildd/nmap-5.21/debian/tmp They started to work properly. Until someone makes zenmap be policykit- compliant, please at least fix the two .desktop files above.

[Bug 461271] Re: zenmap not installed to menus properly
This is because the zenmap as root menu entry uses su-to-root. su-to- root is in the menu package which we don't use in Ubuntu by default. As a workaround, you can install the menu package and it should work. For Lucid, we should replace the call to su-to-root in zenmap- root.desktop with calls to gksudo or gksu or whatever the desktop team prefers nowadays. ** Changed in: nmap (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: nmap (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low -- zenmap not installed to menus properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/461271 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nmap in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Something else that I've forgotten about? 11:08:13 asac gksudo 11:08:16 asac but only 90% sure 11:08:40 asac we dont have that many apps that need root ... mvo ? 11:25:05 mvo asac: no, not that many. 11:25:17 mvo asac: still some though 11:25:28 ~asac mvo: they use gksudo? 11:25:33 mvo yes 11:25:36 mvo well, gksu 11:25:41 mvo and we default to sudo mode there 11:25:51 ~asac soren: see above 11:26:29 * soren nods 11:26:32 soren mvo, asac: Thanks. -- zenmap not installed to menus properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/461271 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nmap in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
