Public bug reported:
Excuse me for my english. It's not my native langage.
With kubuntu 18.04 beta1.
I am using partitionmanager with uid 0, gid 0, (verified with
ksysguard).
When I try to change the mounting point, I can only create a new folder with my
user uid.
So The mounting must be in $HOME or /media/$USER.
I don't understand why root couldn't define a mounting point for exemple
/mydisk.
Then, as the process is with root uid, the file /etc/fstab could be
changed but not with the wanted mount point.
I made an other test by changing
/usr/share/applications/org.kde.partitionmanager.desktop and add :
X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true
X-KDE-Username=root
But no change, I am still with my user id when I try to create the
mounting point.
