Is it possible to arrange for gnome-apt to be usable by a non-root user? To run it as root I have to mess about with X authorization and even once that is done my GTK themes aren't respected. I guess my question can be broken down as follows (and an answer to either part would be enough)
1) Is there a way to run programs as root from X, respecting such things as the current GTK theme; OR 2) Is there a way to enable a regular user to run apt/dpkg/gnome-apt? Thanks in advance, Stuart.
