Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: aptitude

running the aptitude ncurses interface and selecting the "Become root"
option from the menu (ctrl-t for the menu listings) displays:

"run su to become root; this will restart the program, but your settings
will be preserved."

actually selecting that option presents the "[sudo] enter your password"
prompt however.

This application and selection functions as expected, but the reference
to su seems non-standard in a mainly sudo-based environment.
