Thanks for the fix, Jeff. Maybe this should somehow be made possible to correct by doing an dpkg-reconfigure gksu? If that would make automagical correction easier, I mean.
Even though it happens to few people during the dist-upgrade process, an average user hit by this problem wouldn't know what to do when his password suddenly stopped working, and thus it's a bug that's very important to sort out before 6.10's release. -- Edgy uses gksu instead of gksudo (gconf problem?) https://launchpad.net/bugs/59079 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
