Comment 12 for bug 224303

This is really a gksu or sudo bug. My system is up to date. If i put in a terminal gksu any_comand_here, nothing happens. If i try the su mode (with -w), they asks for the password of root.

This is the output for gksu -d gedit
:~$ gksu -d gedit
No ask_pass set, using default!
xauth: /tmp/libgksu-MnZ9Qv/.Xauthority

brute force GNOME_SUDO_PASS ended...
No password prompt found; we'll assume we don't need a password.

If i try
:~$ sudo -H -S -p some_password_here -u root -- gedit
the answer is:
some_password_here
and the process continue until i press ctrl+c, the the message above apears:
sudo: pam_authenticate: Conversation error
