Public bug reported:
sudo doesn't keep the XAUTHORITY env var in Precise. GUI apps fail to
start with:
No protocol specified
Upon adding XAUTHORITY manually to env_keep in /etc/sudoers, gui works,
(but is still a nasty bland theme, not uniform with the user's current
theme, guess lightdm has something to do it)
** Affects: sudo (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
