I'm just stating the facts as I know them in this report. Historically defining a meaning of the wheel group is left to the admin in SUSE. If anyone wants to give the wheel group (or preferably a group with a different name) a special meaning please feel free to come up with a proposal. A change like that needs to fit into a bigger picture IMO. For example I'd be happy if we had some way to tell e.g. whether a user potentially knows the root password or whether the user doesn't. In the latter case some config options could just be disabled instead of annoying users with authentication popups in the first place. I guess that's not the way the wheel group is interpreted on Fedora though. -- 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.

Granted, without the local admin doing more work, the setting does make a difference. And it would be simple enough to remove the option from the drop down dialog, if that's consensus... At the cost that we will carry a patch for like *ever* I'm very much inclined to closing this bug as 'WORKSFORME' (there is no option 'NOTABUG') Comments anybody? -- 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.
