But I really do not intend nor use any root privileges to run the app.s
w/ root privileges. Opposite to this - I try to separate two users -
one for local work, another - the net one (i.e. chromium, qbittorrent,
etc).
Having said that the programs I run w/ gksu are run under the user only
- regardless what is said in its manuals. Thus, only two users involved
- the primer user who issues gksu command and all its children being
run w/ the privileges of the intended user only. Therefore, Bob is
correct - I did not mention root privileges, nor gksu runs app.s w/
it.
I think, there is at least a difference between "written" and "is".
