Then it appears to run, if I close the warning.  I haven't actually
tested, yet, whether it manages to run successfully.  But a few things
spring to mind:

If it really *requires* to be run as root, why is it in a menu where it
cannot?  We don't have a "run as" (someone else) option like Windows
has.  Well, at least the mate desktop does not.

Why doesn't the menu call it in a way where appropriate permissions are
requested as you call it?  Other things that need it, such as various
system configurators, get you to type in your password, or the root
password, before the thing continues on.

If it has to be run from the command line, why's there a menu entry?

Have I missed something?  (Before I go through the tortures of trying to
make a bugzilla report.)
I just installed it on my fedora 20 amd_64 system, and ran it from a user command line. It brought up a " run as root" password box..
