Freddy, I am not sure with which authority you close the bug, so I am not going to reopen it again but I completely disagree with your analysis. Yes, a workaround is to use kdesu but it is cumbersome and actually most KDE applications work nicely even if you use sudo directly (althougth they print a lot of nonsensical warning messages).
At the very least, the warnings are more scarier and unhelpful than they should be. If kdesu is truly the only way, then the warnings should say so. Otherwise, this is a bug with an easy workaround (use kdesu) but still something that could be improved. Thanks and please reconsider re-opening it so perhaps someone will decide to work on improving the situation. -- warnings when running sudo under kubuntu https://launchpad.net/bugs/53845 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
