The thing is:
1. you can't and
2. it won't tell you that you can, because there is no error dialog. The
message is written to stdout, which kdesu does not forward, so the
application just completely silently does not come up, a completely
unacceptable user experience.

Please at least apply a patch like:
https://gitlab.com/Megver83/kdebase-root-patches/raw/master/0001-Defuse-root-block.patch
but I would just rip out the code block completely.
