For the last couple of days, I've been running xfce and using

Pasting this text to the terminal may be dangerous as it looks like
soem commands may be executed, potentially involving root access
('sudo')
[ followed by all, or the start of, what I want to paste ]
That one was from a log owned by lfs:root, and the text was:

But I also get this for a line from a term running as ken:

On desktops I mostly run icewm, but on my laptop I use xfce (it
solves copy+paste issues with the trackpad) and I've not seen this
message there. I'm guessing it might be aconsequence of using
elogind ?
No, it hast nothing to do with elogind, as I get the message, too and
don't use elogind.
You can easily disable it by
Menu->Edit->Preferences->General->Clipboard-> Show unsafe paste dialog
That's what I did....

Not every paste into xfce-terminal on this desktop generates this,
but so far most of them do.
