My system is messed up somehow:

if I try something as su or sudo I get such an error:

sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set

anyone a helping idea
I already tried to chroot and set 755 permission to /usr …
and also chwon root to these folders, but still no change

Enter TTY with Ctrl Alt F3, enter the username as root and the root password will be your password.

Then follow the instructions from Step 2 here: root - /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set - Ask Ubuntu

Exactly that solved it, thank you so much !!!
Still there is something wrong with my nodejs packages since the last update:

maybe you also have an ide to that:

Error: Cannot find module 'nopt'
Require stack:
- /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/@npmcli/config/lib/index.js
- /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/npm.js
- /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/cli-entry.js
- /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/lib/cli.js
- /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js

as I go with npm start

Perhaps @SoulHarsh0071 can help better with NodeJS. Have you already tried to reinstall NodeJS? Sorry, I am unfamiliar with this. I’d wait for SoulHarsh to help…

yes exactly, the 2. time, you saved me, !!!

I uninstalled nodejs, npm, typescript, yarn, then reinstalled,
and it runs, still with some errors, but I am on it :slight_smile:

thanks so much if I fail on those nodejs issues, I would open a new topic and write then @SoulHarsh0071

edit: in this move I also replaced yay with paru, and introduced Octopi, since pamac does not
use paru

edit2: quite everything works again, but I have still one issue with dolphin, namely as I want to
copy files I get:

The file or folder Message recipient disconnected from message bus without replying does not exist.

can anyone relate to that? thanks in advance!

Is this while copying files locally or with a network storage?

just locally, and also disconnected any network links in dolphin,

UNinstalled, reinstalled plasma-meta … and also googled a lot before asking here

I do see some bug reports:

Which kernel version and dolphin version are you running?

Dolphin Version 23.04.3

I am usually on lts: 6.1.39-1-lts
but also tried the newest kernel

Would you be able to try a different file manager to see if the problem occurs there too?

Cookie might soon test Dolphin on their computer

already did, they are fine e.g. thunar,
also made a new user, still the same problem,
seems like dolphin does not have the rights to handle files

It does not have superuser privileges. Is any work of yours held up? If yes, I can suggest commands to temporarily complete what you want to do. Otherwise we can wait for @CookieSource

I got no issues but I also only use one network drive mainly pcloud

Now I was unsure about the state of my computer,
permissions all over the root mount could be wrong,
so I did a reinstall :-), thanks anyways!
