Bug Description

Binary package hint: xdg-utils

xdg-utils should provide an implementation of http://portland.freedesktop.org/xdg-utils-1.0beta1/xdg-su.html so desktop-agnostic applications can be invoked as root. An example is admcccle, which brings its own amdxdg-su version that is incompatible with sudo (and, hence, it doesn't work).
