Bug#395462: gksu: cannot open display when using password from keyring

Package: gksu
Version: 2.0.0-1
Followup-For: Bug #395462

The bug about not being able to open display only occurs when the password 
is retreived from the gnome keyring. If I do not store the password, and type
it in each time when doing the gksu, there is no problem connecting to the
display.
