In Karmic, there was an icon SystemSettings >> Advanced .. Policykit Authorizations
There one could do several things which allowed users access to Hard disk partitions Various KPackageKit features And when those items were "modified" using this "tool," one could circumvent a user from needing to put in a password for: mounting internal partitions updating the package list upgrading packages installing packages So that is what I noted. I am not sure why it was removed. Gnome kept a frontend for this. Either KDE or Kubuntu removed it, or something is not working correctly. I hope this clarifies what the issue is. Is this a bug, or an intentional removal of a means of granting password-less access to certain items in KDE? -- policykit authorization in KDE Lucid systemsettings is absent https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575428 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to polkit-kde-1 in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
