Bug Description
Sbackup 0.11.4, Kubuntu 13.04.
Terminating a running backup using the tray icon does not work. I am prompted for my password but sbackup keeps telling me I entered a wrong password.
This is not a Capslock issue! It's the same password I entered when starting sbackup or the password I use to restore a backup
summary: |
- running sbackup can not be terminated + Cancel backup does not work (as superuser) |

I get a popup with an error message:
Failed to run /usr/share/ sbackup/ sbackup- terminate '32571' as user root.
The underlying authorisation mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this program. Contact the system administrator.

'sudo kill 32571' from the terminal also doesn't work; it has no apparent effect. 'kill -9' does work, but I then also need to manually kill the other processes associated with sbackup.
