Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: systemsettings-kde4

I'm running the KDE 4.2 Beta 2 packages in Kubuntu 8.10.

The "Date & Time" systemsettings module does not properly call kdesudo
so any operations it tries (such as changing the time, utilizing NTP, or
changing the time zone), fail.

When I enter the Date & Time module and make any change and click Apply the 
following message boxes pop up:
"Unable to contact time server: ."
"Can not set date."
"Error setting new time zone."

If I run systemsettings from a terminal, I get the following output:
systemsettings(15442) Dtime::save: Set date QDateTime("Tue Dec 23 22:32:42 
2008")
kdesu: Unknown option 'attach'.
kdesu: Use --help to get a list of available command line options.

I have also tried running systemsettings using kdesudo and sudo with the
same result. It appears that the applet attempts to run the commands
using kdesudo regardless of whether it is running as root or not.
