use global rootshell for privileged commands #9

Closed wamserma closed 5 years ago

This allows to run CANalyzat0r as regular user (without sudo). Elevated privileges for a background shell are requested on startup in that case. This shell is reused for all commands that require elevated privileges (e.g. changing bitrate)

This is expects pkexec from polkit to be available.
