gksu is not working properly

[PistachioGuy]

Hi, thank you very much for reviving this project, it is running very well on my old EeePC.

I just had one issue: gksu doesn't seem to be working. No window opens, and this results in apps like control centre not opening and leaving gksu processes running in the background.

Here is the result of gksu --debug apt update:

Code:

No ask_pass set, using default!

brute force GNOME_SUDO_PASS ended...
No password prompt found; we'll assume we don't need a password.

Everything is default, and I do have a password set. Running latest rc5. Any help is much appreciated
