I just switched KDE Plasma to wayland, to test.
synaptic-pkexec runs perfectly (without sudo). Why would you want to use
sudo?
Here, on every machine runniing wayland, its totally neutered. Might run
but can't actually do anything cuz it doesn't have root privs.
Example:
gene@bpi51e5p:~$ synaptic-pkexec

Authentication is required to run the Synaptic Package Manager

This incident has been reported.

Whats it take to fix it? I am in the sudoers list.
