Description Sol 2017-11-03 19:45:27 UTC 
This bug started happening to me after doing a dist-upgrade from Kubuntu 17.04 to 17.10, dolphin can no longer be run as root using kdesudo. Trying the command returns:

"Executing Dolphin as root is not possible."

Steps to Reproduce:
-------------------
Just run `kdesudo dolphin` either on a konsole or on krunner

Expected results
----------------
Dolphin open as root, and therefore all command run from it run as root.

Actual results
--------------
Dolphin doesn't run and shows the above message.

This is intended behavior
