Title: dbus-daemon-launch-helper must be setuid root
Post by: Arslan S. on February 09, 2010, 04:24:21 PM

only way i could run DeviceKit-power was to make dbus-daemon-launch-helper setuid root

i checked permissions on another linux it was setuid root there too

Thanks - I can't say I've ever used it, but let me have a look.

Edit: my local version has dbus-daemon-launch-helper setuid root??
