Bug#582824: Sorry, this bug is not fixed

[Dominique Brazziel]

	Clicking on a bug link still fails with the exact messages in
'.xsession-errors' I noted above.  Once I changed gksu to operate in
'sudo mode' the errors went away and the bug reports were displayed.
	
	Then I changed gksu back to default mode, and changed 
'/usr/share/pyshared/UpdateManager/Frontend/Gtk/__init__.py' to
call gksu in sudo mode by adding the '-S' flag and links worked again.

	Here is a comparison of the processes invoked with and with 
sudo mode:

Without sudo mode (fails with GConf Error: Failed to contact
configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable
TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system

I think the problem has something to do with trying to execute
gnome-open as root but the current environment (including the
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS) is for the login user.
