Ubuntu sucks. I'm sorry, it just does. I have to install teams for linux and I have been working hard for hours to get it installed without success.

My mom just encountered the dialog prompting her to sign-in to Ubuntu One when she went to install Krita from the GNOME software center. She has used Gnome software for over a year to find, install, and update software. It's a convenient way for ordinary users to do so. It is jolting for non-power users to suddenly need a separate, cloud based account to manage an application. Even as a power user I do not understand the need for this. Unfortunately it does not look like there is a way to hide applications in GNOME software center that require this, so the best option for ordinary users might be to avoid Ubuntu, and have them use debian testing + Gnome instead.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1581713] Re: Ubuntu Software always asks for an Ubuntu Single Sign-On account when installing or removing a snap package
As we discussed the last time this came up, yes, that seems fine. Handing out a token to root that provides an authorization to manipulate the system is analogous to allowing root itself to be doing removals without further store information, which we allow. The necessary infrastructure for that is pretty much in place since we already have to maintain the local and remote macaroons separately, and the situation where the remote macaroon is missing or incorrect is already handled. If a store operation depends on a valid user, it will prompt for a full login, and once performed that will associate the remote macaroon with the existing local user instead of creating a new one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581713 Title: Ubuntu Software always asks for an Ubuntu Single Sign-On account when installing or removing a snap package Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Triaged Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in snapd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: If I try to uninstall a snap using Ubuntu Software, it asks for an Ubuntu Single Sign-On account.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1581713] Re: Ubuntu Software always asks for an Ubuntu Single Sign-On account when installing or removing a snap package
Here's what I wrote mailing list post I linked to, it gives an example of why this feature is required: There are a number of cases where it makes sense to be able to remove a snap without logging in: - You may be offline and so can't do an Ubuntu One login at this time. - You don't have an Ubuntu One account but you want to remove something. - The snap came pre-installed, and you want to remove it. You have no need to log in and install more snaps (at that time). - You are a different user to the one who installed it. The reason gnome-software triggers the login is the following happens: 1. g-s finds the snap using GET /v2/snaps on snapd. 2. The user clicks "Remove" 3. g-s requests removal using POST /v2/snaps/[name] 4. snapd returns the error "login-required" 5. g-s prompts the user for email address / password 6. g-s asks the system D-Bus service snapd-login-service to login with the email address / password 7. snapd-login-service checks with Polkit that the user is allowed to do this 8. Polkit triggers a password prompt to check the user is there 9. snapd-login-service calls POST /v2/login on snapd 10. snapd returns a macaroon 11. snapd-login-service returns the macaroon to g-s 12. g-s repeats POST /v2/snaps/[name] using the macaroon The question is - does it make sense to make a new request to snapd that gets an authorization macaroon without logging into Ubuntu One? i.e. something like this: 1. g-s finds the snap using GET /v2/snaps on snapd. 2. The user clicks "Remove" 3. g-s requests removal using POST /v2/snaps/[name] 4. snapd returns the error "login-required" 5. g-s asks the system D-Bus service snapd-login-service to authorize 6. snapd-login-service checks with Polkit that the user is allowed to do this 7. Polkit triggers a password prompt to check the user is there 8. snapd-login-service calls POST /v2/authorize on snapd 9. snapd returns a macaroon 10. snapd-login-service returns the macaroon to g-s 11. g-s repeats POST /v2/snaps/[name] using the macaroon If we do this at what point do we prompt a user to do an Ubuntu One login? Do we have two error messages "auth-required" and "login-required"?

I did an attempt to resolve this by trying to get snapd to generate a Macaroon without store access. But as I understand it getting a Macaroon requires a round trip to the store.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1581713] Re: Ubuntu Software always asks for an Ubuntu Single Sign-On account when installing or removing a snap package
Here is our thinking on Ubuntu Core devices and user accounts. Ubuntu Core is largely for devices that operate with almost no human interaction. You install the device, it updates itself forever, life is good. In that case, most devices will not have many or any user accounts. That's completely different to a laptop or developer system, or a normal server, which has many people who might log into it on any given day. For that reason, having the user account on Ubuntu Core be single-sign accounts makes sense. This is exactly the trend in the world - look at modern wifi access points, for example. You get a single management account, usually in the cloud, and you manage all devices through that. The net effect is much better security for these devices. In due course, we will reduce dependency on the Ubuntu SSO (this is just the current implementation, we envisage enabling people to have their own identity systems). But the base idea that you don't want to be setting a separate username and password on these devices is very well reasoned and appropriate.
