Description Hitman47 2021-03-02 12:53:14 UTC 
(They work if I launch the script with sudo, su, gksudo or zensu)

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. kdesu -c "the script"
2. Within the script, have commands such as "sudo su -c 'command' user" or "su -s ...login info..." if login is needed
3. Those commands won't run. If I use any other root aquisition method other than kdesu, they will.

OBSERVED RESULT

Empty message in bash -x, nothing executes, there's something with kdesud but i lack debugging knowledge

EXPECTED RESULT

specified above

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.21 but 5.20 was the same
