Just wanted to add that I can reproduce this bug with Feisty (everything up-to-date, so I guess I'm running Herd 4?).
Here's how I can reproduce it: - Open Konsole - #kdesu kate - Enter password - Immediately after Kate opened, close it (click on close-icon in upper-right corner) - #kdesu kate #ps aux shows some stuck processes related to this: myuser 7984 1.7 3.0 124812 15584 pts/2 S+ 21:20 0:00 kdesu kate root 7987 0.0 0.0 5692 376 pts/4 Ss+ 21:20 0:00 /usr/bin/kdesu_stub - root 7990 0.0 0.2 26324 1084 pts/5 Ss+ 21:20 0:00 /usr/bin/sudo -u root /usr/bin/kdesu_stub - Neither running "sudo -k" nor "kdesu -s" makes kdesu functional again. -- kdesu will not start apps https://launchpad.net/bugs/50971 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
