Bug Description

Binary package hint: kdesudo-kde4

Unable to open a root file manager.
Tried from krunner and from konsole, both yield the same results.

kdesudo dolphin

results in a gui popup stating "Command Not Found!"

tried the same with konqueror to see if it is a kdesudo issue or a dolphin issue.
Was able to duplicate the same problem with

kdesudo konqueror.

Hi mykrob,

Thank you for reporting this bug. I can easily confirm this, also with
kdesu kate
kdesudo kate
kdesu kwrite

so it seems to be a problem with kdesudo. Altough it is installed it isn`t found be krunner. i also tried to "kdesudo kwrite" from yakuake-kde4 and konsole (both kde3 and kde4).

I discovered, that this also affects sudo. When I try to start sudo kate in a Konsole (like yakuake) it doesn`t find kate.
:~$ sudo kate
sudo: kate: command not found

But when I start: sudo /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kate it works. So I looked at my path:
:~$ echo $PATH
/usr/lib/kde4/bin:/usr/lib/kde4/bin/:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

But this seems all ok.

:~$ kdesudo --version
