Comment 7 for bug 1020115

If it is a general thing that g_spawn_*() doesn't work with pkexec then it suggests that the bug is in glib or pk I think.

Is this not a bug everywhere we launch desktop files? The g_app_info_launch() family, which is used extensively throughout Unity, just uses G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH, but would also require G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD as seen in Bilal's branch. I wouldn't want to add manual reaping everywhere we do this...
