[Bug 546295] [NEW] Confusing use of 'gksudo' in 'sudo' paragraph

 

Public bug reported:

On page 127, gedit is started with the 'gksudo gedit' command. While
this is the correct way of handling a GUI-app with sudo, I think there
must be a sidenote explaining the difference or just give the example
'sudo gedit' (because the implications are very, very minimal).
