Yeah. This is the kind of weird stuff I want to get rid of by replacing gksu with gksu-policykit. I don't think that patch will make users happy - I believe I used to do something similar to that, but end up doing the 50 tries instead because people were complaining launching stuff with gksu took too long. Would you be able to provide me with a patch that detects we're under mips(el), and increase the amount of waiting based on that? It is hackish, but it may please everyone. /me gets more motivated to replace gksu soon Thanks, -- Gustavo Noronha <k...@debian.org> Debian Project -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
