A quick look at my various apt sources.list files indicate I am not using any non-buster repos. So why did gksu show up in my buster apt cache? Since it is also on my system, and works, I conjecture that it was not removed at the time of the dist-upgrade. Checking another machine that had a fresh installation of buster, gksu is not installed and "apt-cache search gksu" returns nothing. Curiouser and curiouser. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
