https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=348546 Summary: KDE update: KDM requires root password on shutdown Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- (Using official and test updates for 10.3) KDM requests the root password at shutdown after installing the latest kdebase3-kdm-3.5.7-87.2 (and related) package some days ago, which were provided as online update. In /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager, I had DISPLAYMANAGER_SHUTDOWN="all" before installing the update (see also bug 327582). After installing the update, I have DISPLAYMANAGER_SHUTDOWN="auto" again and KDM requests the root password for shutdown. I'm sure I didn't change the configfile myself. # ls -l --time-style\=full-iso displaymanager -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5369 2007-12-11 15:09:46.000000000 +0100 displaymanager Compare this with the install time of kdmbase3-kdm (see rpm -qa --last below) and you will have a match. I had a quick look at the package showed it modifies DISPLAYMANAGER_SHUTDOWN in %post. My guess is that this %post script is broken. Marking as critical because it changes user configuration and there's no way to find out the previous setting in a fixed update. rpm -qa --last [cups / texlive / openssh / pm-utils / ispell updates skipped] NetworkManager-0.6.5-37.4 Do 13 Dez 2007 01:02:52 CET kdelibs3-devel-3.5.7-72.4 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:10:16 CET kdebase3-beagle-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:10:07 CET kdebase3-session-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:10:06 CET kdebase3-nsplugin-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:10:06 CET kdebase3-extra-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:10:05 CET kdelibs3-arts-3.5.7-72.4 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:10:01 CET kdelibs3-doc-3.5.7-72.4 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:09:58 CET kdebase3-samba-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:09:47 CET kdebase3-kdm-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:09:45 CET kdebase3-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:09:35 CET kdelibs3-3.5.7-72.4 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:07:55 CET timezone-2007j-1.1 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:06:42 CET rsync-2.6.9-55.4 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:06:29 CET wireshark-0.99.6-31.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:06:23 CET kdelibs3-default-style-3.5.7-72.4 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:05:52 CET kdebase3-ksysguardd-3.5.7-87.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:05:47 CET fileshareset-2.0-372.2 Di 11 Dez 2007 15:05:44 CET -- 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.
