[Bug 341699] [NEW] .desktop doesn't launch because 'su-to-root' is missing

[Roberto C. Morano]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firestarter

We are including 'firestarter' package in Guadalinex and we have detected that the actual .desktop is using 'su-to-root' tool to gain root privileges.
This tool is provided by the package "menu" which is not listed as 'firestarter' dependence as it should.
It was obviously not working for us since no other package had installed it letting us to catch the bug :]

I have checked that the same package in hardy wasnt using 'su-to-root' but it had many _other_ dependences which are not listed on jaunty version anymore, so maybe there are other missing aswell.
I haven't tested firestarter deeply yet, so I just can say it gets launched in our environment.

I attach a patch for debian/control

Regards.
