Title:
pkexec does not launch graphical authentication
Status in “policykit-1” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Installed Trusty Tahr Lubuntu Beta1 version and added xubuntu desktop. In
buth desktops, I tried to launch synaptic to install some packages. If I try
to launch from menu, nothing seems to happen. From a terminal, I ran
pkexec "/usr/sbin/synaptic"
and saw that it asks for password in the terminal window, instead of popping
up an authentication window like previous Ubuntu version did. That was why I
saw no authentication request when launching from menu.. I have a
workaround)launching from Terminal window), but this should be fixed before
release.
