Furthermore gksu is not the only ubiquity specific dependency that gets
removed at the end of the installation. Other dependencies include many
filesystem specific utilities that happen to not be used for this
particular install e.g. xfs/btrfs/mdadm/lvm/dm-raid utilities and etc.

Title:
  gksu is on live cd but not being installed

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  So post install if a user uses gksudo <whatever> they'll be prompted
  to install gksu. That's great & all but many users will be unaware
  that gksu defaults to "su" & will be looking for the root password
  which isn't what the user will know or expect.

  If you have pkexec replacements for common uses great though I don't
  see as yet... (gedit, nautilus, gdebi, ect.
