Sorry, but I have no idea. A similar bug was reported some time ago by Rick Mills https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=382611 in Neon and Artful, but I cannot reproduce it. The authentication is handled by PolicyKit (PolkitQt1). It has it's own configuration on how to authenticate and authorize the user. But as it has already been said, it is more likely that the authentication window is just hidden behind something else. After a little time the authentication window expires and the error message is shown. ** Bug watch added: KDE Bug Tracking System #382611 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=382611 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to muon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1714820 Title: Muon refuses to elevate to superuser for package install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/muon/+bug/1714820/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1714820] Re: Muon refuses to elevate to superuser for package install
I can't replicate this on my system and can only assume that the authentication window is not being displayed or becoming focused to the front of the active windows. I have sub'ed the maintainer of the program to this report, maybe he will know what could be causing it to do that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1714820 Title: Muon refuses to elevate to superuser for package install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/muon/+bug/1714820/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1714820] Re: Muon refuses to elevate to superuser for package install
This works fine in the daily build for me and my running install of artful. The message will be displayed if you do not complete an authorisation dialogue when it is show, and it times out. Perhaps you have a window manger rule/placement setting etc, so the authorisation box was there, but you did not see it (obscured/elsewhere etc)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1714820 Title: Muon refuses to elevate to superuser for package install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/muon/+bug/1714820/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
