[Bug 267399] New: kdesu does not car about /etc/sudoers
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=267399 Summary: kdesu does not car about /etc/sudoers Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.2 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: estellnb@lycos.at QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Not only sudo but also kdesu should take care about the /etc/sudoers file. This will be especially useful when performing online updates via SuseUpdater. An entry for "/sbin/yast2 online_update" should also relieve from typing the root pwd when using the graphical frontend rather than the text interface. This will of course also be possible if SuseUpdater tried a sudo before invoking kdesu, which would however pose a specific and therefore less desirable solution. At the moment something seems to be completely messed with kdesu in OpenSuse10.2, because it does not even accept correctly typed passwords like su does! -- 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.

Unfortunately I am deerly required to work on something else at the moment. The reason why I have assigned a priority to that simply is because another request, that one for the SuseUpdater, which is by itself already resolved, depends on it. Perhaps it is not the task of the people from KDE to implement this, for it may not be of great concern outside the Suse-project. Nevertheless, my transeunt regards concern those people who have already voluntary invested some or even considerable effort in testing the ZENworks package management frontend(as shipped with 10.1&10.2) and will now, as the next major release namely 10.3 is impendent, have to notice that some of their most liked features simply have disappeared in the consecutive, merely yast based release of the package management frontend to libzypp. Consequently I have lately assigned priorities to all requests concerning potential feature drawbacks in the pkg.mgm.frontend, that may affect the average, engaged user as well as an enhancement(Enh 380292) as a potential candy for the double-testing effort. The OpenSuse project ought to keep and encourage its community of practice (Lubos, you simply wanted me to explicitly state this; that you can confess quiescently.). Thourough testing as well as the provision of an intelligible, concludent set of features, part of which can be provided by the soc.cop., may and will be key issues for the success of a software product. It is not a kudos if the final release of a distro greets with the backtrace of the screensaver, as was the case for Su10.3/kde. As long as no one is against it I will continue to assign priorities(at least up to the level of three) if I believe that a request is of increased importance to the OpenSuse-project, simply because that feature has been activated for me; - and a vote for those which I would appreciate to become resolved in regard to my own flavour and purpose. -- 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.
