Hi Charlie, It appears that I also have the same as you (assuming "/aps/" was a typo):
de...@demetria:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/gksudo lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 May 31 18:24 /usr/bin/gksudo -> gksu de...@demetria:~$ cat /etc/alternatives/libgksu-gconf-defaults /apps/gksu/sudo-mode true de...@demetria:~$ This is an install that started from Lucid alpha 3, so the issue may have originated there. I just found it very strange that it accepted gksudo, but not gksu. Is there any other config file that may cause it? -- xubuntu - password always fails when trying to install language support https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/588518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
