Comment # 5 on bug 1187478 from Tony Su

I started seeing the problem only recently in two machines, one running 15.2
and the other 15.3 both running LXQt.

I have the 15.2 machine in front of me having this problem.
I have been capturing all journal messages during an attempt to launch YaST2
from the menu (journalctl -n) and see nothing written at all.

The following is the output from running xdg-su.
Maybe you see something unusual, but the part about User 1000 not owned by UID
0 is usual and also displays when I launch from a root console.


# xdg-su -c "/sbin/yast2"
QStandardPaths: runtime directory '/run/user/1000' is not owned by UID 0, but a
directory permissions 0700 owned by UID 1000 GID 100
lxqt-sudo: Stripping child environment except for: DISPLAY, LANG, LANGUAGE,
LC_ADDRESS, LC_ALL, LC_COLLATE, LC_CTYPE, LC_IDENTIFICATION, LC_MEASUREMENT,
LC_MESSAGES, LC_MONETARY, LC_NAME, LC_NUMERIC, LC_PAPER, LC_TELEPHONE, LC_TIME,
PATH, QT_PLATFORM_PLUGIN, QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME, WAYLAND_DISPLAY,
XAUTHLOCALHOSTNAME, XAUTHORITY
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'

I can run same tests on the 15.3 machine tomorrow, but the observed behavior is
identical to this 15.2 machine.
