However, looking at debain/control, checkbox doesn't suggest or
recommend gksu. it is a dependency by checkbox-gtk, but not by
checkbox-qt:
Package: checkbox-gtk
Section: gnome
Architecture: all
Depends: checkbox (>= ${source:Version}),
gir1.2-gtk-3.0,
gksu,
python3-gi,
python3-gi-cairo,
${misc:Depends}
Description: GTK interface for checkbox
This project provides an extensible interface for system testing. The
results can then be sent to Launchpad.

This package provides a GTK interface for answering tests.
Package: checkbox-qt
Architecture: any
Depends: checkbox (>= ${source:Version}),
libqt4-dbus,
libqtgui4,
python3-dbus,
${misc:Depends},
${shlibs:Depends}
Description: QT4 interface for checkbox

This package provides a QT4 interface for answering tests.
So perhaps what needs to happen, assuming that A: gksu is still in Main,
but NOT part of the base install for Ubuntu Desktop and B: because of
this we never noticed it when installing checkbox-qt, we need to make
gksu a dependency for checkbox-qt as well.
Time to fire up vbox and do an install to investigate.
