Summary: kdesu does not work on OpenSolaris
Product: kde
Version: 4.2.4
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Solaris
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
ReportedBy: moinakg at gmail.com
Version: (using KDE 4.2.4)
Compiler: Gcc 4.4
OS: Solaris
Installed from: Compiled From Sources
kdesu in KDE 4.2.4 fails in OpenSolaris with a message saying conversation with
su failed. It turns out that KPty calls tcgetattr on the master fd which fails
on OpenSolaris.
The attached patch adds a check for Solaris and uses the slave fd if so. When I
checked KDE 3 source I found that this handling was done properly in KDE 3 but
got changed during subsequent code refactoring in 4.x.
