Description:

This bug is similar to https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/10297.

While the version of gnome and nautilus in the repo is already 3.0+, but gksu still install libnautilus-gksu.so extension to /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0.

As a consquence, the extension will not effect in nautilus 3.0+. One have to manually cp it to /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0 directory to get it work.

Additional info:
* Package version of gksu is 2.0.2-3. Version of nautilus and gnome is 3.2.0-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install gksu (pacman -S gksu)
2. Restart nautilus (nautilus -q && nautilus)
3. Right click on a file.
4. No "Open as administrator" option.

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  sort-of "fixed". The extension has been removed, as mixing gtk2 and gtk3 in one process is impossible, so this extension won't work with nautilus 3.0 no matter what.
