alunn no longer working with KDE 4.6

I use alunn to be notified about available package updates.

After upgrade to KDE 4.6, alunn still shows the package updates, but they can't be installed any more using alunn. The internally by alunn issued command is

kdesu "konsole -e alunn_updatescript"

If you have alunn installed, you can enter that in a terminal as well. You will be prompted for the root password and after having entered the correct password, you get the following error response:
Der Befehl „ 'konsole -e alunn_updatescript'“ kann nicht ausgeführt werden. -> in English:
Cannot execute „ 'konsole -e alunn_updatescript'“.

Console output:

[dieter@arch32 ~]$ kdesu konsole -e alunn_updatescript
kdesu: Unbekannte Option „e“.
kdesu: Benutzen Sie den Parameter „--help“, um die verfügbaren Optionen zu sehen.
[dieter@arch32 ~]$ kdesu "konsole -e alunn_updatescript"
kdesu(3752) startApp: Daemon not safe (not sgid), not using it.

Any idea? Or shall I file a bug report?
