Package unetbootin shouldn't depend the gksu

[Sam Rog]

The Unetbootin package 575-1ubuntu2 is depending the gksu - bug report 1206467: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unetbootin/+bug/1206467

The gksu is not the only graphical frontend for the su. The Kubuntu is using as default the kdesudo.

Please remove the 'Depends:gksu'.

Maybe a better would be: 'Recommends: gksu | kdesudo'.
