Package: gksu
Version: 2.0.0-1
On my Debian Etch install with backported 2.6.22 kernel, running any
application that uses gksu (such as the Root Terminal) causes an
extraordinarily high amount of wakeups (and thus, a large amount of power to
be consumed) as measured with the PowerTOP 1.7 tool. In the case of
applications which use gksu for authentication, this continues as long as
the application is open, and does NOT stop after the user has successfully
authenticated.
For comparison:
System with gnome-terminal open, doing nothing:
Wakeups-from-idle per second : 422.0
System with gnome-terminal open, doing nothing (invoked with gksu):
Wakeups-from-idle per second : 1550.6
This needs to be fixed...

Version: 2.0.5-1
This bug has been fixed in libgksu 2.0.5, already. Unfortunately this
fix will not migrate to stable, most probably. Here's the actual
changelog entry:
libgksu (2.0.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream version
- now uses a less dumb way of relaying child's stdout/stderr,
thus not requiring so many wakeups (Closes: #425679)
- also completes startup notification when cancel is pressed
(Closes: #426495)
* debian/patches/04_create_keyring.diff,
debian/patches/00_gettext_all_linguas.diff:
- removed; applied upstream
