Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace
Problem description: The update process fails due to missing root priviledges. I have tried to launch the update from "K-->System Settings-->Add Remove Software->Software Updates-->Select all updates-->Apply". The problem occured also if the update process is launched from the user update notifier. The update process should issue sudo and ask the user to provide their password.
