We're also supposed to be able to do it by updating the
libgksu-gconf-defaults alternative to point to
/usr/share/libgksu/debian/gconf-defaults.libgksu-sudo

Apparently this isn't working. Someone will need to examine things to
see if d-i is not setting the alternative correctly, or if it doesn't
work; I don't know which it is.

Using a gconf key was discussed in the original design discussion, and
rejected since it means putting a non-dpkg managed file in /usr.
