Then when I set an admin password in Calamares should that not be the
one in wheel instead of user? Do we really think users will find it OK
that admin password works for some things and not others? What then is
the purpose of setting an admin password separate from user password in
the installer?
I'm not talking about nor do I care about some policy set by KDE
developers or any others I'm talking about as a distro what our users
will see and asking is this reasonable? I think any user quite
reasonably will be confused having to issue root password for KDE
Partition Manager and KUser but then having to issue user password for
Drakconf and system-config-printer, ect.
And note: Not meaning to argue with JCL I know the point he is making is
correct. I am trying to show that that one point is not by any means
all there is to this subject from a user perspective.
