SRU verification for Karmic:
I have reproduced the problem with backintime 0.9.26-3 in karmic and have
verified that the version of backintime 0.9.26-3ubuntu0.1 in -proposed fixes
the issue.
I've also verified that backintime runs as root when launched from the
menu to launch it as root.

Hi,

proposed and version set to 0.1) and uploaded.
Waiting for approval right now.

On a base Karmic or Lucid system both of the Backintime front-ends have an
undeclared dependency, which results in them failing to launch as root from the
menu system.
TEST CASE:
Install a base system and either of the BiT front-ends. Ensure the

Upstream we use gksu, it is changed to su-to-root in the ubuntu packages,
however it seems to be a very neat solution for a common encountered
problem.
Are there any strong arguments not to switch upstream, eg what is the

that is, a missing dependency on menu.

su-to-root tries many different ways to get root, and respects local
administrator's wishes. It can leverage sudo instead of plain su. Using
it minimises dependency bloat for BiT (why depend on kdesudo when the
administrator wants sux?) and mean that the two front ends are
interchangable. The only
Good point, never mind my comment.

Seems reasonable. However, the launcher starts "su-to-root backintime-
gnome" and is included in the backintime-gnome package. backintime-kde
also has it's own launcher, while backintime-common doesn't include one.

If you use gksu you have to maintain separate versions of the launcher
in the gnome and kde packages. Using su-to-root lets the launcher stay
in the common package.

This is a packaging bug because of a patch applied in Debian, not an
upstream bug, which is why it's invalid in backintime but confirmed in
backintime (Ubuntu). Please leave it like that.
Ubuntu MOTUs: the following trivial patch should suffice and will be
applied in the next Debian upload, but ne
No, it is not installed by default as part of a desktop system, which is
why this is a problem. It's certainly not invalid though, either the
dependency needs to be installed or the launcher for Back In Time (root)
needs to not use su-to-root. Leaving it as is is just broken.

Is menu installed by default as part of a desktop system? If not, this
