Title:
  ** (gksu:xxxx): CRITICAL **: fcntl error

Status in “gksu” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I chaneged my system from 13.10 to 14.04 by clean install. I got
  kerneloops on 14.04 beta 2 so I went back to 13.10.

  To try to new kernel on 14.04 I installed it yesterday. After the
  clean install and run updates my first task was to modify the grub and
  fstab. I'm using for it the gksu gedit command. Now I got error
  message and gedit not opened. For example:

  barricade@Barricade:~$ gksu gedit /etc/fstab

  (gksu:4983): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text from markup due to
  error parsing markup: Error on line 1 char 86: Element 'b' was closed,
  but the currently open element is 'big'

  ** (gksu:4983): CRITICAL **: fcntl error

  ** (gksu:4983): WARNING **: Lock taken by pid: -1. Exiting.

  We talked about it on hungarian ubuntu forum and got same message from
  gksu other user too. I tryed to purge and reinstall the gksu but it
  not solved the problem. The sudo nano /etc/fstab and sudo gedit
  /etc/fstab commands working well.

  I tryed reinstall all system but the gksu problem is occured again.
