Bug#517474: gksu: Sudo mode isn't working anymore when activated in gconf-editor

[Apelete Seketeli]

Package: gksu
Version: 2.0.1-1
Severity: important

To enable sudo-mode by default I use to activate the appropriate
option in gconf-editor. Since gksu last update however sudo-mode isn't
working anymore, even though the option is still active in
gconf-editor. If I manually launch a root application with gksudo it
works though...
