** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gksu
  
  TEST CASE:
  1. boot ubuntu with mem=128M in grub
  2. log into the failsafe terminal
  3. start firefox& (just to get even more memory presure)
  4. run gksu id
  5. watch it hang, verify with pstree that there is a "bash -- gksu -- sudo" 
subtree (in additon a strace to the sudo process will show it blocking in 
read(0,...)
  
  6. install libgksu2-0 from hardy-proposed
  7. repeat steps 1-4
  8. verify that it actually works now
  
- Running an app that uses gksu fails the first time it is tried after
- starting the system (gksu and the app both appear on the taskbar for a
- bit and then both vanish without windows appearing). Running the app
- again immediately after and the gksu window & greyout effect appears
- immediately.
+ In addition to this, please also verify that there are no regressions in 
normal operation (i.e. no slowdown!).
