You have been subscribed to a public bug:
I have Kubuntu Hardy Beta with KDE3
Repro steps:
1- open Dolphin
2- right-click on a font (.ttf) file that you haven't yet installed
3- click Actions->Install
4- choose to install for "system" (not "personal")
5- when prompted, enter root password
6- observe that the font installs properly
7- now right-click on another font (.ttf) file that you haven't yet installed
8- click Actions->Install
9- choose to install for "system" (not "personal")
10- observe that it does not prompt for the root password this time
11- It fails with the message "Could not access \"System\" folder"
There is a workaround. If you wait for several minutes until the
escalated privileges time out, then it will prompt for the root password
again, and you can install the second font.
** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Fix Released
