Description Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2018-11-27 13:42:01 UTC
Description of problem:
Many authselect commands work just fine as a normal user (or rather under fakeroot to circumvent the check).
I'd expect at least help (!), list, show, current, test, to not require root.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
authselect-1.0.1-2.fc29.x86_64
