kdesu weird issues in Plasma 5.2.95

Kdesu is properly installed but doesn't work from terminal.
This is what I get : http://i.imgur.com/lYbw67g.png

However when I am using KDE partition manager which I installed from AUR, it works : http://i.imgur.com/CpSf6U3.png

But, in octopi which i installed recently, it is not working : http://i.imgur.com/jgN5rrl.png

Re: kdesu weird issues in Plasma 5.2.95

Seems that the kdesu package is out for Plasma. Having the same problem after today full upgrade. Found kdesu is flagged out (!) and exists a new one "kdesu4".
Before command "kdesu kfmclient" didn't start. error 'KDEinit non found program <>: ........
Now it's like before. Appears window requesting root password.

Update kde-cli-tools to 5.2.95-3 - this "bug" is repaired. See:

pacman -Ql kde-cli-tools
(...)
kde-cli-tools /usr/bin/kdesu
