Given that update-notifier-kde uses kdesudo, I suspect that this is not the package in question. Can you provide the distro version (Hardy, Intrepid, etc) and exactly the steps/apps used and any other details to help us direct this to the correct location?
Marking incomplete for now. |

apt hardcodes "gksu synaptic" in it hook file which breaks any DE not using synaptic. Since synaptic is no guaranteed to be installed, this is not a good approach for ensuring the hook can be dealt with by update-notifier or update-notifier-kde. |

I am working on a fix for the hook problem with package apt. It will require a simple script to detect the DE session running and prefer Adept/Kdesudo if running KDE, otherwise default back to Synaptic and Gksu. The hook file will then call this script rather than 'gksu -- synaptic' directly. |

Binary package hint: update-notifier-kde
I have both gksu and synaptic installed and when asked to refresh the package lists, it chooses to use synapyic and gksu over the kde counterparts. I imagine this is just the backend preferring it but it looks a bit jarring to use. |
