gkdebconf (2.0.0) unstable; urgency=medium Since the Debian GNOME team decided to drop gksu from Debian (c.f. https://bugs.debian.org/822594), gkdebconf now uses sudo + ssh-askpass to call dpkg-reconfigure with root permissions. For now, users which should be able to use gkdebconf should be in the "sudo" user group. Bumping the major version since this is an incompatibility with previous versions. -- Axel Beckert Thu, 16 Nov 2017 20:39:04 +0100
