[member=6629]ralphy[/member] Essentially gksudo is deprecated for security reasons on all gtk3+ apps in gnome so it is inconsistent across platforms based on Ubuntu 16.04 and up and/or Debian 9. The deployment of pkexec is incomplete in Ubuntu 16.04 and up as well, depending on the version, so that XFCE, Mate, Lubuntu, and others can still access gksudo for certain other apps. It is an Ubu thing. Similar issues with NM and WICD since Deb default went gnome, i/e gnome default compared to LXDE. Core issue is with the base GUI for apps.
