lxqt-sudo discards the command argument #188

lxqt-sudo discards the -geometry argument anywhere

Expected Behavior

lxqt-sudo xterm -hold -e echo '-geometry'
Should show a window with the text -geometry

lxqt-sudo xterm -geometry 100x1000
Should run xterm -geometry 100x1000

Current Behavior

lxqt-sudo xterm -hold -e echo '-geometry'
empty window

lxqt-sudo xterm -geometry 100x1000
run xterm without -geometry argument

It seems, that this argument is interpreted & taken by Qt -> https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qguiapplication.html#supported-command-line-options.

But aren't you trying to execute this?

lxqt-sudo xterm -hold -e 'echo -geometry'
