Does your su binary have SUID flag?
no: "ll /usr/bin/su" -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 51320 15. Apr 20:10 /usr/bin/su
Can you please try to change that to -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 51320 15. Apr 20:10 /usr/bin/su eg by "chmod 4755 /usr/bin/su" and try to reproduce the error?
it works now! :-D
Good news.
"ll /usr/bin/su" -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 51320 Apr 15 20:10 /usr/bin/s
also kdesu works.
thanks. so, could it be, that an update on 2020-04-24 changed the SUID flag on the su command?
This is highly unlikely: 1) It would need to be changed explicitly in the package's build infrastructure 2) As packages are tested before being released, this would definitely have shown up in these tests. So, in a nutshell: I'm (really!) afraid we won't know what the root cause for this problem is. So I'm closing this bug as FIXED. If you feel this is incorrect, please re-open. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
