Not sure what happened during the updates I’ve applied, but some time recently I lost the KDE menu item to run Zenmap as root. I’m trying to restore that and cannot seem to find modern information to add that. Any help would be appreciated. I’m on the latest issued Tumbleweed as of early this morning.
This entry is only one .desktop file in: /usr/share/applications/
t14g5a:~ # rpm -ql zenmap
/usr/bin/nmapfe
/usr/bin/su-to-zenmap.sh
/usr/bin/xnmap
/usr/bin/zenmap
/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/...
...
/usr/share/applications/zenmap-root.desktop
/usr/share/applications/zenmap.desktop
/usr/share/man/man1/zenmap.1.gz
/usr/share/pixmaps/zenmap.png
t14g5a:~ # cat /usr/share/applications/zenmap-root.desktop

When that file is gone, after last update, you can recreate it (see above content; in the # cat command output). Alternatively, you can reinstall zenmap with # zypper in -f zenmap.
