From ba74d639178916221c748b0d5d89f7ac4f5ed669 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fabian Vogt Date: Sat, 22 Apr 2017 14:00:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "Disallow executing Dolphin as root on Linux" This reverts commit 0bdd8e0b0516555c6233fdc7901e9b417cf89791. We ship a desktop file to open dolphin as root and we allow YaST on the desktop. So this patch is absolutely pointless for us. --- src/main.cpp | 11 ------------- 1 file changed, 11 deletions(-) Index: dolphin-24.01.80git.20240701T140601~e2f316578/src/main.cpp =================================================================== --- dolphin-24.01.80git.20240701T140601~e2f316578.orig/src/main.cpp 2024-07-01 16:06:01.000000000 +0200 +++ dolphin-24.01.80git.20240701T140601~e2f316578/src/main.cpp 2024-07-01 22:12:17.154311426 +0200 @@ -59,20 +59,6 @@ int main(int argc, char **argv) { -#ifndef Q_OS_WIN - // Prohibit using sudo or kdesu (but allow using the root user directly) - if (getuid() == 0 && (!qEnvironmentVariableIsEmpty("SUDO_USER") || !qEnvironmentVariableIsEmpty("KDESU_USER"))) { - QCoreApplication app(argc, argv); // Needed for the xi18ndc() call below. - std::cout << qPrintable( - xi18ndc(dolphinTranslationDomain, - "@info:shell %1 is a terminal command", - "Running Dolphin with sudo is discouraged.
