GKSu is a library that provides a Gtk+ frontend to su and sudo. LibGKSu project supports login shells and preserving environment when acting as a su frontend.

It is useful to menu items or other graphical programs that need to ask a user's password to run another program as another user.

What's New in 1.3.4 Stable Release:
relibtoolized with libtool --automake -c -f (Debian's libtool 1.5.20-1)
configure.ac: bump version to 1.3.4
libgksu/gksu-context.c:
apply the same solution to handling error return checking to the su backend

What's New in This Release:
This is the first stable release of libgksu after the libgksu 1.2.x series.
It brings lots of the enhancements that were done to the gksu application into the library, a much better and simpler API, a more robust approach to some of its processes, and improved security.
