Happy testing!

Hi Jean-Baptiste,
I have tested mkusb in the current daily build of Artful Aardvark
running on Wayland.
mkusb version 12 alias mkusb-dus works with Wayland in Artful Aardvark,
but there are problems with mkusb-11 with the classic user interface.
mkusb-11 is run via the command line
sudo -H mkusb-11
and it seems that no graphic application programs works, when run with
sudo -H or gksudo. xterm and nautilus are also failing as illustrated
with this dialogue,
-----
tester@tester-SATELLITE-PRO-C850-19W:~$ sudo -H xterm

Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the

The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted
in this environment. You may get a more descriptive message by running the
program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the executable.

- Do you know if this is by intention or a bug in Artful Aardvark (that
you cannot run graphic applications with sudo or gksudo)?
- Do you know if there is a workaround or fix in order to run graphic
applications with elevated permissions in Artful Aardvark?
