It's not part of the base install, so save for checkbox-gtk, we never
explicitly declared it.

Before just going ahead and adding it as a dependency, we need to ask
the desktop team; they were the ones who removed it from the desktop CD
(to community upheaval) so if checkbox simply re-adds it there will
be... trouble.

One thing to try would be modifying the plugins/backend_info to try to
use pkexec (try gksu, if not present try pkexec, if not present either
fall back to sudo). Then seeing if that works well as I recall plainbox
using pkexec exposed some strange problems in the tests.
