Public bug reported:
On the "Other Software" tab, I am unable to select "Canonical Partners".
Similarly, the other checkboxes on the "Other Software" can not be clicked.
Clicking on a checkbox has no effect, and a dialog requesting the admin
password is not presented.
However, activating or deactivating checkboxes on other tabs causes an
authorization dialog to be presented to the user.
I experience this bug in an an Xorg session.
