That really does not qualify at all I'm afraid. The most important problem is that the default action when you click on a package is for it to be opened in Ark. This is hidden in the context menu which is why I didn't find it. The second problem is that the command just opens up an xterm and displays the prompt "Password:". This raises a number of questions (I know the answers to these questions, I am trying to look at the situation from the perspective of a less experienced Linux user): - What password and why? - What will happen when I enter my password? - Why aren't there password-characters ( stars, black circles, asterisks or something of that ilk )? This is still a console app and not a GUI. -- Cannot install deb packages from GUI in Kubuntu (no gdebi equivalent) https://launchpad.net/bugs/76158 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
