Zenmap GUI start-up script (root mode) patch - fedora support

[Jerry Dimitrov <jerry.dimitrov () hostwaycorp com>]

Hello Nmap DEVs,
My name is Jerry and I want to contribute with a little patch in order 
to enable the current Zenmap root mode start-up script for Fedora.

At the moment, when I try to start-up Zenmap from the "Zenmap (as root)" 
shortcut (.desktop file) - nothing happens.
This is because in Fedora, there is command line tool equivalent to 
gksu, named beesu (:D)
So in order to start Zenmap in "gksu way/style" for Fedora, we need the 
attached patch.

I am not really sure if we need to add RPM dependencies (beesu dep) 
patch, but I assume that the answer to this question is "No".
Because for Fedora we doesn't include dependency for nmap in order to 
install zenmap.
Also the root priv. start up script, checks whether we have those 
programs installed.


I want to thank you for this awesome project and please let me know if 
this is the wrong place/way to communicate/contribute for the Zenmap GUI.
The only information that I found for the contribution process/details 
was from: https://svn.nmap.org/nmap/HACKING
I am not really sure if the last one is up-to-date and accurate, so 
please excuse me, if I'm wrong :)

Let me know if you have further questions or any comments on the 
patch/contribution process.
Best Regards,
Jerry
