I do acknowledge that this bug is dead and burried since the Ubuntu team as
decided to drop this handy feature for some unclear and unjustified
reason...still no one answered my question.
Will the libnautilus-gksu.so presently dated feb 23rd 2011 work with Ubuntu
12-04 by simply copying the lib
Ok, thanks for this comment and the download link.
So, in other words, does this mean that just dowloading the current build of
this library and put it inside /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0 would still
work with 12.04 ? No need to recompile the sources ?
Oddly enough, the libnautilus-gksu.so
Some clear words: DB (and all others), this is the wrongest way. If you
wan't to use that file, download the package from packages.ubuntu.com
and extract the file you need. Downloading a not verified file frome
somewhere isn't the right way. no one can be sure what that file is and
what it does.
This bug is dead buried -
I'd suggest that users wanting this to use Dr. Osman's ppa - it's well done,
activly supported uses nautilus python extensions instead

I agree with Thorsten. However you don't need to do that; in Precise
12.04 - gksu nautilus works for me. And no, I didn't try any of the
workarounds mentioned in this bug report.
$ locate libnautilus-gksu.so
is nowhere to be found.
:/usr/lib/nautilus$ ls -al
total 60

NoOp - this over done bug what people are talking about is the
gksu-nautilus extension (Open as Administrator), not the gksu nautilus
command which is quite functional

You actually don't even need to install the package, just place a
copy of libnautilus-gksu.so in /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0
I found the [libnautilus-gksu.so](http://www.ivegotavirus.com/blog/wp-
content/uploads/libaryFiles/libnautilus-gksu.so) file
ok, this is wont fix, although I fully agree with #13 and I dont understand,
why remove this extension
BUT, why it is in Ubuntu official repositories, if it is not working and is not
going to be working anymore??

Peter, nautilus-gksu is no longer in Ubuntu as of the next release,
12.04 Precise Pangolin

Closing since the gksu people won't be porting this to GNOME 3 and the
Nautilus developers don't encourage running Nautilus as root.

I think this may be the answer to this bug, whether there will be a
'replacement' I have no idea. One can likely keep the previous 'alive'
for awhile
gksu (2.0.2-6ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* Merge from Debian Testing. Remaining changes:
- debian/patches/01_desktop_in.patch: don't
Note that I don't have the auth to mark Won't Fix, someone should be
done with this...

Another option to make this work in lieu of a new build would be to just
link instead of copy, thought I'd mention
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0/libnautilus-gksu.so

I wish to point out this bug comment by Matthias Clasen
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654184
If it's been decided that using a root file browser is no longer advised
this extension falls under that then this bug should be marked won't fix
In that case the package should also
Oh, fine. It's been decided. Who has decided this? Sorry, but I think
that the user should choose what he needs or what he finds useful. This
extension isn't installed by default, so knowing it and installing it is
an explicit choice.
The fix is easy, so removing this is like shooting sparrows
Thorsten -
northing's been decided in ubuntu as far as I see, I'm hoping this will be
addressed. one way or the other, -it has been 3 months.

I fully agree with Thorsten - people who don't know about this feature and its
potential dangerousity will not be concerned at all as this feature is
unavailable by default with the current build. On the other side, people who
were using this feature are probably knowledgeable enough to know
On my Intel 64-bit system, the copy did work (got context menu, then
pop-up and finally root access).

Don't quite see what the connection is to the python issue other than it
depends on libnautilus-extension1
nautilus-gksu works fine once the .so is where it's expected to be - in
/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0
I've been using it for 4+ months in 11.10 with no issue
