I'm not sure what happened, but KPackageKit is now using what appears to be gksudo. I've attached a screenshot. Everything still works, it just looks horribly ugly. Any idea what happened and how to fix it?

Re: KPackageKit uses gksudo
Is that due to PolicyKit integration and not really a *sudo prompt at all

Re: KPackageKit uses gksudo
Ah. You're right. It's running policykit-gnome. Now how do I fix it? I tried uninstalling policykit-gnome hoping policykit-kde will be run, but it just says I don't have permission...Comment

Re: KPackageKit uses gksudo
Got it! I needed to remove policykit-gnome AND libpolkit-gnome0. Then the correct dialog is used again. I installed some gtk app and it was installed with it. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.Comment

Re: KPackageKit uses gksudo
This helps for kde apps but with gtk apps i.e. in Firefox, if you have a bookmark file on another drive and you try to mount that drive, you get the following error: Failed to execute child process "gnome-mount" (No such file or directory). Reinstalling gnome-mount requires policykit-gnome and you're back to square one.Ubuntu 11.04, Kubuntu 11.04, and another TBDComment

Re: KPackageKit uses gksudo
I wonder why policykit-gnome supersedes the kde version in kde apps.Comment
