2011-02-01 22:17:26 Felix Geyer summary kdesudo fails with non-latin1 passwords kdesudo fails with non-ascii passwords
2011-02-04 16:11:48 Felix Geyer description The KdeSudo window asking for the admin password which appears when I try to change / add software sources in KpackageKit gives me an "Invalid password" reply. However, KpackageKit accepts the password for installing / uninstalling programs just fine, as always. I then have installed Adept 3.0. But this another package manager does even not start as KdeSudo asks for the admin password before opening Adept... And it happens the same thing. Everytime the answer it's "invalid password". It didn't happen some time ago. So, perhaps this has to do with the fact that when I start kate with sudo for viewing or editing system text files, one window with the following message appears: "Could not start ksmserver. Check your installation". Then, when clicking on the "okay" of such window, Kubuntu brings me to the initial login screen. (Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378394 or https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400594 ). If I do not click in the okay of such small, white xmessage window, then I can continue normally running the OS, except that I can't get KdeSudo to accept passwords anymore. But, now, restarting Kubuntu does not solve this problem concerning kdesudo not accepting the password. So, I think I not longer can use programs which require KdeSudo to put the password. Software: Kubuntu 9.04 (i386), KDE 4.2.4. The KdeSudo window asking for the admin password which appears when I try to change / add software sources in KpackageKit gives me an "Invalid password" reply.

Software: Kubuntu 9.04 (i386), KDE 4.2.4. TEST CASE: * change the user password to "12345§" * run the command: kdesudo konsole - kdesudo doesn't accept the password * update the kdesudo package * run "kdesudo konsole" again - konsole opens with root privileges
