Hello Jozsef, The setting of /apps/gksu/sudo-mode does not belong to menu, so I reassigne this bug to gksu. Ubuntu does not offer to set the root password, so it can always set /apps/gksu/sudo-mode to true unconditionnaly. Debian cannot do that. Maybe d-i can set a debconf value that gksu would use to choose the default, but this might fall afoul of the 'Debconf is not a registry' policy.
