Description
Installing kdesudo on a gtk based desktop installs a boat-load of kde libraries and applications. It would be better to use gksu/gksudo as an alternative, or detect which one is installed, and use that.

Research direction
Search the installer entry points for where kdesudo is invoked and inspect how privilege escalation is selected. The change is complete when the installer can use an available gksu/gksudo alternative or detect the installed command without requiring KDE libraries; verify the installation path on a GTK-based desktop.
