kdesudo dialog needs more details

[Lars Noodén]

Binary package hint: kdesudo

It's hard to know what kdesudo is up to. The dialog says only, "/usr/share/apport/apport-kde needs administrative privileges. Please enter your password"

More details are needed about what the program is doing and especially what the options are.
Was it launched by a script? Was it launched by cron? etc.

That is entirely within the hands of the invoking application. Supposedly in this case apport itself.
