Or that there is an error in startup. Open up a konsole terminal emulator, and type gtk-gnutella and hit enter. Whether or not the program starts, wait a little while until it seems like nothing much else is happening, and then copy and paste all the output into an email to the bug report (not to me) if you don't see the problem. > Since I have run it previously as a non-root user and found the permisssions > of /usr/bin/gtk-gnutella set as root,root , I considered this both odd and a > possible security weakness. > Hence my bug report. It is normal for programs to be owned by root. Ownership alone doesn't prevent you from executing the program, permissions are also involved. On Debian systems, the default for a program is to be ownership root:root, and permissions 0755. This allows anyone to run the program, but only root to modify it.
