Using consolehelper requires this arrangement:

1. The program to be run as root is installed into /usr/sbin or /sbin, and not
/usr/bin, e.g. /usr/sbin/pup

2. A symlink is made from /usr/bin, e.g. /usr/bin/pup -> consolehelper

So when a regular user types "pup", it invokes "consolehelper", which prompts
for the root password, switches to root and then runs the appropriate program
from /usr/sbin or /sbin, i.e. /usr/sbin/pup
