Package: gksu
Version: 1.2.2-1
Severity: normal
I think it should be permissible to have synaptic on one's machine and
not have sudo. synaptic depends on gksu, but doesn't require sudo to
run. sudo is a security risk -- I don't want it, but I want programs
that require the ability to su graphically.
su and sudo are in separate packages -- for good reason.
