Description You-Cheng Hsieh 2012-07-03 03:48:28 CEST 
Description of problem:
While click 'open current folder as toot' in PCmanfm, an error dialog will prompt "failed to execute child process "xdg-su" (no such file or directory).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.9.10

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run pcmanfm
2.Tools -> open current folder as toot

Suggested Workaround:
(Since we don't have any package includes xdg-su)
1.make pcmanfm requires gksu.
2.Change 'Switch user command' in preference to use gksu instead of xdg-su.

Note: this bug is also valid in Mageia 2.

Bug fixed in cauldron. As the fix will only affect new users first login, I think it should not be an update for MGA2.
