Description Alain Knaff 2010-05-11 00:05:01 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When the system invokes kdesudo, it pops up a dialog box showing the command to be executed, and a password prompt.

The command however cannot be copy-pasted (for example for googling it, or for executing it manually in a root shell).

Should just need setTextInteractionFlags(Qt::TextSelectableByMouse | Qt::TextSelectableByKeyboard); set on the label, as in https://cgit.kde.org/kio.git/commit/?id=025e5e9957ff92c8196f820e9490f337ebfbe317
Comment 3 Christoph Feck 2018-06-27 19:33:40 UTC 
But make sure the Tab-chain doesn't break by making the labels interactable.

Good point!

Allow to select text of KPasswordDialog labels

Made this primary with _kdesu_ in mind. Now you can copy&paste the command which shall be executed.
