** 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.
version 1.9.1-2ubuntu1 on edgy
** Changed in: gksu (Ubuntu Hardy)
