this is not a plasma issue, and is an installation issue. kdesu, which kde apps use to elevate priveleges in this case, needs to be compiled and/or configured to use sudo rather than su. it does support this, however. Sudo is not configured by default in Fedora and thus using sudo in kdesu is a no-go. |
