[Bug 1740620] Re: mythtv should not depend on gksu

2018-03-13 Thread Jeremy Bicha
** Description changed:

  gksu has been deprecated and unmaintained for several years. It is
  recommended for app developers to use PolicyKit to run the specific
  actions that need elevated privileges instead of running the entire app
  as root.
  
  Ubuntu 17.10's default desktop (a themed GNOME on Wayland) does not
  support gksu.
  
  Therefore, Debian and Ubuntu intend to remove gksu soon. Please modify
  mythtv-frontend and mythtv-backend to not depend on gksu.
