Description of problem:
LuckyBackup doesn't start. Unknown error message is displayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:
launch luckybackup form command line or menu.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. luckybackup
  
Actual results:

Additional info:
This seems to be a problem with the Fedora package since the "offical" package provided here : http://luckybackup.sourceforge.net/download.html doesn't cause the same problem.

I tested the luckybackup-0.3.5-2.fc12 update, but the launch core dumped :-(

Comment 7 Thomas Janssen 2010-02-21 11:45:16 UTC
Hmm.. Works flawless here with F-12 x86_64. See attachment.

Can you post some output so i can try to find out what happened? And what arch is it?

Thanks.

Comment 9 Gilles 2010-02-21 12:23:05 UTC
I retested and this time i can launch luchybackup.

But, it's automaticly launched as root. :-(
It's not the case with the luckybackup.sourceforge.net RPM.

Good.

Yes. We had a discussion about it in IRC and decided, since we use consolehelper (different from the original su-to-root) that it's fine for a backup solution to run as root in general.
It's not possible to have the same binary as bin and sbin with consolehelper.

Bad news .... No root access, no luckybackup :-(
I prefer having the choice to launch it as root or not, but it's just my opinion ....
