           Summary: kdesu changes the current working directory when
                    "Remember password" is checked
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE 11.3
           Version: Factory
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: KDE4 Workspace
        AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de
        ReportedBy: atilinuxnovellbugs@ati.com

NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

For example

  cd /usr/bin
  kdesu "./xterm"

will fail if "Remember password" is checked. An error message "Command
‘./xterm’ not found" is displayed. If an absolute path is used the
command succeeds but the current working directory is changed.

  cd /usr/bin
  kdesu "/usr/bin/xterm"

If "Remember password" is unchecked, the current working directory in
the xterm is /usr/bin, as expected. If "Remember password" is checked,
the current working directory in the xterm is "~/Documents".

Reproducible: Always
