Hi!
Thanks for your bug report and sorry for the delayed response.
As you may be aware, during each cycle a lot of work goes into
software-center. However, over time we build up a long list of
bugs which are most likely no longer present in recent versions
of software-center.
In an attempt to clean up the bug list for software-center I am
expiring this bug because it was filed against an old version of
software-center which shipped in Ubuntu 11.04 and in addition it
meets one or more of the following criteria:
- it would seem quite likely that this bug is no longer present
in recent versions of software-center,
- the bug report does not contain sufficient information for us
to reproduce and/or fix the bug,
- the issue is most likely in an external piece of code and has
most likely been fixed since the bug was reported.
If you experience any problems with Software Center in Ubuntu
12.04, please do continue to report new bugs. Thanks again for
your help!

Title:
root authorization non-functioning when trying to access Software
Sources dialogue
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Aloha,
In order to get to this place (launchpad) one has to click on the
prior "report a bug" dialogue. Said dialogue sends system details, no?
I ask this as below, on this page, it asks for the same sort of info.
No prob, just confusing.
System->About Ubuntu returns: "You are using Ubuntu 11.04 - the Natty
Narwhal - released in April 2011 and supported until October 2012.
Clean install. No kernel, or any other, updates.
In Terminal"
apt-cache policy pkgname returns: "Unable to locate package pkgname"
==========================================================
My "bug":
Applications->Ubuntu Software Centre->Edit->Software Sources.
Once I enter the admin account password, the expected "Software
Sources" dialogue box does not appear. Instead, in the left pane of
the Software Center window, it shows a green rotating icon with "In
Progress" next to it. This icon stops turning in a few seconds,
leaving me almost where I started when I opened the Ubuntu Software
Centre window.
Good luck hombres. I'll continue to surf the Web for answers. If not a
bug, please email link with the directions to let me achieve my "goal"
in this Nabby Nabokov release.
Merci mes amis!
