Also, a root file manager, if not a full root GUI session, is
necessary to compile programs and build RPMs from that, and that's
also something I do. Again, I'm requesting this bug
be researched and fixed.

"...Don't open root file manager windows. It's a bad idea in the first place to use a GUI filemanager as root. Can't tell you how often I've seen users trashing their system that way...and complaining that it's what you do on M$ and the DE has to hande that..."
TDE has that capability installed and for good reason. This
has nothing to do with "M$" (Microsoft). I'm requesting
this bug be researched and fixed. There are times when
the system needs custom configuration and a root file manager is
the way to do that, especially when you want to be able to set
up your system so it can be restored from scratch without having
to depend at all on the internet.
Anno domini 2025 Thu, 6 Mar 23:37:03 -0800 Alec Destry via tde-devels scripsit:About a week ago, I reported this bug in TDE 14.1.3 at https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde/issues/224 but, so far, nothing has happened. Is that where bugs should be reported?Should be the right place :) Anyway, I just commented there: Don't open root file manager windows. It's a bad idea in the first place to use a GUI filemanager as root. Can't tell you how often I've seen users trashing their system that way ... and complaining that it's what you do on M$ and the DE has to hande that. But this is the unix way of livey: you are free to shoot yourself if you feel like it.
