Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-manager

When I use the update-manager to install new updates, the gksu'd window opens with root's theme, not the logged in user's.

As you can see, the window isn't themed using the user's theme, but root's or maybe the gnome standard theme.

Only globally installed themes can be used by other users. /usr/share/themes.

A workaround: ln -s $HOME/.themes /root/.themes
