Anyway you should be able to find easily a package

tdesu or tdesudo in Synaptic (my preferred one) or any package manager app.
Or sometimes the name of the app has changed to trinity-(the name of the

No tdesu. But tdesudo and gksu are both there. So I installed gksu.
But it didn't work. I.e., <gksu kwrite. in the launcher produced a request
for the root password - but entering the root password had no effect.
Nothing at all happened, and a check with ps showed that nothing had been
launched. I tried all three of the programs I normally want to use this way,
and nada. :-(
So I purged gksu.
17 packets installed, one was removed. So now |I have 16 orphaned packages to
remove. :-( Wne I have looked it up.
