Subject: gnome-terminal doesnt start as root with su or gksu
Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.22.3-3
Severity: normal
When started using su or gksu, gnome-terminal still start a terminal as
user, not root.
As such, the default Gnome menu entry "Root terminal" (which uses gksu) does
not work.
To reproduce, from an existing terminal:
$ gksu gnome-terminal
or
$ su -c gnome-terminal
It works fine with sudo or gksudo. xterm starts fine (as root) with su or
gksu.
It seems to have something to do with session management.
Compare the ouputs when launching xterm and gnome-terminal:
***
$ su -c gnome-terminal
Password:
(gnome-terminal:14343): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session
manager:
Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols
specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
$ su -c xterm
Password:
Warning: Tried to connect to session manager, Authentication Rejected,
reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and
host-based authentication failed
***
It looks like the same problem happens, but xterm treats it as a warning
rather than error.
Also note that when gnome-terminal fail this way, the "su" command will
return, and another user terminal will be launched. Whereas if using sudo
the "sudo" command will not return until the newly launched terminal is
closed.
