* Add debian/patches/22_root_only.dpatch:
  - *.desktop files: Execute programs through gksu.
  - src/time/time-tool.c: If executing through sudo as root, temporarily
    switch real user id to SUDO_UID, so that we can connect to the actual
    user's session dbus for disabling the screensaver. Attempting to connect
    to root's nonexisting session dbus just hangs.
  - This reintroduces checking of the user's password to defend against
    viruses and trojans modifying system settings, and also removes the
    dependency to the 'admin' system group. 
  - Closes: LP#59946
