Its doing what sudo should be doing. You are asking it to run the command gainroots. Since that command is not in the sudoers file it falls back to asking you for roots password in order to run the command gainroots.

Nothing (so you'd get an error afterwards), but it only check for the existence of the command after checking the authentication (otherwise it's leaking information about what commands are available to other users).

There's actually no reason for it to be part of the CSSU either. To avoid legal issues the changes would be developed as a patch which, at install time, modified the files on a user's machine. This is similar to the approach on #11976. This package could then go in Extras, entirely independent of the CSSU.

The big advantage here is that these two big infrastructural projects are then split up and don't hold each other up; allowing more rapid iterative development and deployment.

Although when I mentioned this to the "patch" developers, they didn't seem to enthusiastic about this approach; preferring to ship code copyrighted to other people. Not going to happen on "official" maemo.org packages, IMHO.
