Well, I don't really understand why kdesudo asks this question at all. Would there be some reason someone would install the package, and *not* have kdesudo used by default? The only reason I can think of for it to default to not being used is just what you're talking about doing -- including it in the task by default. :-) It seems easier at the moment to add your code, and include it in the task than it does to change the default or remove the debconf use, and come up with a way to detect which tasks were installed[1]. > KDE team: any comments on this plan? > > > Side note: I wonder how we ensure gksu is available on the first CD.

However, I've explicitly added it now. -- see shy jo [1] tasksel --list-tasks can do it, but hides hidden tasks like .. kde-desktop!
