There are several methods. One, is change the permissions of the applet or the underlying daemon, so that a normal user, unless he belongs to a certain group, can not run it. Another is listing in a file which users can use some special tools.
Seriously Carlos?
Yes, seriously.
You want someone to create yet another nonstandard file to list people?
Why not? We are only talking of PackageKit, not of any standard.
There are standards for this already, some followed, some not. Wasn't that what the Wheel group was for?
That's what I'm using >:-)
Isn't that what sudoers was for?
Sudoers is not configured in default opensuse system, it would be impossible to start now, just for one program, by the distro. It is up to you, the admin, to do it. Say, how would you configure sudoers to make the updater applet not appear? Which is the main question here. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
