Hi there,
I've noticed similar issue on Fedora-23 & Fedora-25:
Found out that starting a bash-script via desktop-file as ordinary user is just
fine.
But same attempt in combination with UID-substitution functionality (the
bash-script shall be run as user "root") the execution of bash-script fails.
UID-substitution is defined directly inside the desktop-file (or within
KDE-properties of the icon). Like this one is asked to authenticate (password)
and the script will executed then.
This worked for me for years (in particular I run a backup-script as "root"),
now this is broken for a while already.
Content of example bash-script:
-------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
echo -n "I am: "
whoami
Content of example desktop-file:
--------------------------------
[Desktop Entry]
Comment=A simple script for test proposes
Exec=/path/to/above/script/test.sh
GenericName=Bash script
Icon=application-x-shellscript
MimeType=
Name=My-Terminal-Script
Path=
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=true
TerminalOptions=\s--noclose
Type=Application
X-DBUS-ServiceName=
X-DBUS-StartupType=none
#X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true
#X-KDE-Username=root
Check running the script by clicking the icon - works fine.
Uncomment the last 2 lines (enables UID-substitution) - will fail.
If my bug should not be related to the reported one please let me know.
