gksudo without sudo

[Billy Pollifrone]

It would appear to be an oversight as sudo/gksudo wants to be the
'normal' way to perform admin related tasks. Not requiring you to
install it is interesting on one hand, but you did select expert, so
perhaps it assumes you know what you are doing. Of course, gksudo
depends on sudo, so it should at least force it to be installed.
