I've just hit this similar issue on Xubuntu 20.04. The problem here is
there's a missing "Depends: kde-cli-tools" because the "Full mode"
desktop file tries to call kdesu which isn't installed:
Exec=kdesu nmapsi4
I think that is probably not the way to do it even though it is a using
a QT GUI - it should switch to using pkexec or similar rather than rely
on a flavour-specific core tool.
$ cat /usr/share/applications/kde4/nmapsi4-admin.desktop
