Reading this it seem the requirement is to only use GUI to prompt for the password and use

sudo
- gksu is a gtk frontend to

I don't know if this will work. But if you elevate the program like this: system ("
sudo
bash-something" + somestring); //results in the command '
sudo
bash -something:somestring ' being called That should give you should give you
sudo
( think ). system() allows you to run a command on the system (only works on linux afaik)

In order to accomplish that, you'll need a root shell. If your root account is enabled, you can authenticate yourself with 'su', otherwise just run "
sudo
bash" (or whatever shell you prefer) and enter your password. Once you've obtained the root shell, you can run the source command and proceed with the install.

So, use
sudo
to change to root:

su - Then, install the package. No passwords will be sent to any malware as a result. Checksums are good, and I think that Qt will provide those if you need.

Okay, off with MD5 checksums, we're off to a wrong direction. The original question is: "How to verify a package that requests
