By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Alexis PM 2012-09-19 12:18:53 CDT 
In T > System, applications as KPackage open, but for a action ask for "SUDO password", and again neither user password neither root password work. But KUser in T > System work well with root password.

I believe that this is already fixed in R14 and upcoming 3.5.13.1.
Please, can you verify this?

This bug persists exactly in 3.5.13.1 (Slavek repo: deb
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/slavek-banko/axis/ubuntu squeeze
main), like konsole-Superuser http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=853 and Synaptic http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1230 too.

Yes, I confirm it as of today.
Comment 7 Darrell 2013-04-13 15:29:58 CDT 
The problem is with 3.5.13.X? Or GIT too?

The version indicated in the bug report: 3.5.13

Thus completing my previous answer, the bug remain today in a Debian Squeeze with TDE 3.5.13.1, repos as indicated in http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/DebianBinaryInstallation, all updated.

Kpackage has its own settings, what program to use for privileged operations. See Settings / Configure kpackage / Misc. And sudo is the default.

It is important to add the build option, which would allow to select default superuser command at build time?
