Hi,
I have a directory (/home/michael/openSuSE x64 Packages/) with a package (truecrypt-5.1a-0.x86_64.rpm) in it. When I click on the RPM in Dolphin, KDE su launches with the following command "/sbin/yast2 --install /home/michael/openSuSE x64 Packages/truecrypt-5.1a-0.x86_64.rpm". After I enter my root password, I get three separate errors: 1) Package Packages/truecrypt-5.1a-0.x86_64.rpm was not found on the medium. 2) Package x64 was not found on the medium. 3) Package /home/michael/openSuSE was not found on the medium. After the three errors, YaST quits.
The errors are obviously related to the spaces. But I am not sure if this is openSuSE's problem or KDE's problem. I am inclined to believe that the error lies with openSuSE because kdesu has no way of knowing the last part is a path. I think there is a bug in one of the openSuSE scripts.
Should I create a bug for this at bugzilla.novell.com?
Yes, please. We can always tell you it's an upstream bug.
Also, I could use some help picking a better description since this is not really a kdesu bug in my opinion. Can anyone tell me what those "scripts" are called?
The KDE team will know for sure, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
