I'm using pkexec / xhost to open a graphical file explorer for another user 'myOtherUser'
- With Ubuntu 18.04 I was able to open a command shell by mouse right click 'Open Terminal'.
- With Ubuntu 22.04 on a new machine however I get the follwing error when I use mouse right click context menu 'Open in Terminal': 'Failed to execute child process "dbus-launch"'
Script:
#!/bin/sh
xhost +SI:localuser:myOtherUser
pkexec --user myOtherUser env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY nautilus
xhost -SI:localuser:myOtherUser
log output
localuser:myOtherUser being added to access control list
