Please forget about the applet. The applet is dumb. The real guilty here is a binary the applet launches. This binary is run by the user, but the bnary has the suid bit on (+s). I think the bug could be that, HOME is defined in this case as the user's home, but zypp still looks if the curl file is owned by root. I mean, this implies zypp is not taking the case where a user runs a suid program linked to it. Michal, can you please chown /home/mludvig/.curlrc to root but give permissions to others to read? I want: mludvig@zofka:~> ls -l .curlrc -rw-r--r-- 1 root users 31 2006-12-12 14:33 .curlrc and see if it works. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
