Bug 59532

I was able to get this to work by using the menu editor to run this application
as root.  Perhaps this can be the default?  In any case, the current error
message is a bit too vague, IMO.  The app should check the permissions on the
crontab file and report a permission error, suggesting to run the application as
the appropriate user (root in this case).

Thanks again. 

Is this bug still present in a recent KDE version, such as 3.5.9 or 4.0.1?

SVN commit 787315 by ternisien:

Improve errors management
Rewrite and simplify most part of KCron
Add right action buttons list for a easier action access
Improve command line parsing, to avoid the saving of good command line
Reimplement and rewrite the TaskEditorDialog, by allowing a minute per minute selecting, and a smarter
displaying.
Able to add multi-lines comments on variables and tasks
Clean API
All known bugs are now closed, KCron seems to be ready for KDE 4.1

It just needs a icon from KDE Artist team
