Title:
  gparted menu entry depends on gksu

Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gparted

  When you try to run gparted from Kubuntu and don't have gksu
  installed, you get the message "KDEInit could not launch 'gksu'.:
  Could not find 'gksu' executable."

  Seems like the menu entry hard codes gksu instead of choosing the best
  su available (is there anything like sensible-sudo?).
