Bug Description
i started the kubuntu firefox installer. then i clicked the button "Install" on the window that appeared. then i was asked my password, then nothing happened, the window closed like i didn't start anything.
after some analysis, it turns out that it's because my user is not a sudoer. so i wouldn't have the right to install firefox anyway.
so i think that case should be handled better, through an error message for instance.
(this is karmic)

Actually kdesudo should treat that case, not the caller. After all, who would tell you that the user is not a sudoer if you invoke kdesudo manually?
