I believe it is the same error as #173

Installation fails and ends with the following:

Running post_activate hooks...
Voila! All good.
--
Installing init scripts.
Sweet! Please run `prey config gui` to finish installation.
Voila! All good.
No protocol specified

(gksu:2660): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0
dpkg: error processing package prey (--install):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 prey

I can solve this by doing xhost +local:root.

But the GUI does not start although it says:

Firing up config GUI!
All done!

Then I can only run the configuration using python2 but not as sudo, which prevents from accessing the configuration files.
So overall quite not working as intended.

Is this a known issue?
Thanks

I can confirm this behaviour on Ubuntu Gnome 15.10.
