[Bug 833058] Re: Muon-updater doesn't ask for password

2016-01-29 Thread Ales
Happened to me on Kubuntu 15.10 after upgrade to Plasma 5.5.3 and Frameworks 
5.18.0 
using kubuntu.org's ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports.

The message was: "This operation cannot continue since proper
authorization was not provided."

Plus some weird problems for instance cannot suspend to RAM without the
authorization.

It turned out that the package of PolicyKit-Kde was gone. I had to
install it back:  sudo apt-get install polkit-kde-1.

Please file a new bug at bugs.kde.org against muon, this is most
certainly not the same issue as this bug here.

If you run into the issue please make sure you have the package "debsums" 
installed and run the following in a terminal, then put the entire output in a 
file and attach it to the bug report.
echo "-env"
env
echo "-ps"
ps -A
echo "-debsums"
sudo debsums -c

Additionally, please check if running the following helps with the problem:
`sudo pkill -9 qaptworker2`

then restart whatever muon application was misbehaving.

Reinstalling polkit-kde-1 doesn't work for me. I even tried;

sudo apt-get purge polkit-kde-1
sudo apt-get install polkit-kde-1

I suspect it doesn't work because it doesn't actually restart the polkit
process. Only logging out and logging back in does that. When I do so,
"ps -e | grep pol" shows

  1547 ?00:00:00 polkitd
19929 ?00:00:00 polkit-kde-auth

but there's no actual commans to start polkit. Anyone know what it is so
I don't have to logout/login?

It was solved only installing polkit-kde-1 package.

This package should come in the default Kubuntu install, at least in the
standalone install from CD/DVD.

[Bug 833058] Re: Muon-updater doesn't ask for password

2013-01-30 Thread J. Joseph Felten
Same problem as Rosemary Hendley (catbells).  Fresh install of 12.04.1
LTS (amd 64bit) on a new computer (AMD A6 APU).  Did not connect to the
Internet to install patches during OS install.  After OS install, and
connecting to the Internet, muon-installer and muon-updater launched
from the GUI application launcher O.K. and asked for a password for
elevated privilages and ran properly.  Used muon-updater to install all
patches and rebooted.  After patching/rebooting, launching either
resulted in the "This operation cannot continue since proper
authorization was not provided" error.  They did NOT ask for a password.
The problem seems to be them not asking for elevated privilages and
therefore not being able to actually install software/patches.  I had to
manually run them via kdesudo from the command line which did work, but
a new user would not know to do that and would be stuck.  Was this bug
re-introduced when I ran the update?

I also saw this same problem a few months ago when I installed 12.04 LTS
in a vm under virtualbox.  I just worked around it at the time since I
was just trying Kubuntu 12.04 LTS out then and figured it was such a
major bug it would be soon fixed.  I am very surprised it has not been
fixed by now.

I also saw the firefox installer problem.  The installer started from
the application launcher would run, not ask for a password, lie that it
had completed successfully, but not actually do anything.  I had to
install Firefox manually.

Note again this was a clean install on a new hard drive.

I hope this help someone fix this problem as it would sour a new user on
Kubuntu which otherwise is excellent.

[Bug 833058] Re: Muon-updater doesn't ask for password

2012-12-28 Thread Rosemary Hendley
Yesterday, I did a fresh install of Kubuntu.  I've never used it before.
Muon gives me the same message that Sumski reports #1.

Also kubuntu-firefox-installer failed to run because of a lack of proper
authorisation.  I don't know whether this is a related issue.

About me:  I'm pretty computer literate for someone who has never learnt
about linux code and, who has never worked with computers.  For example,
I did a little Fortran, Basic and Pascal programming in the early 1980's
and used DOS before Windows 3.1.  I've used Ubuntu since August 2010.
I'd like to suggest that if I can't make essential packages work on
first install of an operating system, it is not user friendly enough for
the general population.

The original reporter of the bug posted in the first comment "Installing

The rest of the discussion was about how best to ensure polkit-kde-1 gets 
pulled in by dependencies.

@tkedwards: it seems the initial bug description was forgotten during
the discussion: Trying to use muon-updater , but it doesn't work. When
selecting Install updates, the following message appers: "This operation
cannot continue since proper authorization was not provided"

I just did sudo apt-get install --reinstall polkit-kde-1, then tried to
use muon-updater again. I still receive precisely the same error
message. So what exactly are the problems reported in this bug which
were fixed?

I think this bug led to the discovery of some problems which were indeed
fixed, but the root cause for this particular problem was neither
identified nor fixed.

pawmar if you're still having problems after polkit-kde-1 is installed I
think that's a separate bug.

The problems reported in this bug were all resolved once polkit-kde-1
installed - the bug (now fixed) was that that package was not installed
automatically with kubuntu-desktop.

[Bug 833058] Re: Muon-updater doesn't ask for password

2012-05-10 Thread pawmar
I have this problem since at least 11.04, hoped that some next release
will fix it but it's still present in precise. polkit-kde-1 package is
installed and nothing changed.

In precise the situation is better, as polkit-kde-1 is now pulled in by
the kubuntu-desktop metapackage.

[Bug 833058] Re: Muon-updater doesn't ask for password

2012-03-28 Thread Tim Edwards
Ok I didn't realise it was that complicated. In my case I install a
'Kubuntu' system by first installing Ubuntu and then installing the
kubuntu-desktop metapackage, since I want to have all the config tools
that come with Ubuntu and I find some of the GTK apps better than any
QT-based alternative (GIMP, Firefox, Libreoffice etc.).

So if kubuntu-desktop always installed polkit-kde-1 like you suggest
this should be enough to solve the problem for me, and for most people I
guess. But that wasn't the case with 11.10 when I installed it a few
months ago.

[Bug 833058] Re: Muon-updater doesn't ask for password

2012-03-28 Thread Gert van Dijk
Tim, your explanation in comment 13 is unfortunately jumping to
conclusions; it isn't *that* simple as you suggest, assuming you mean a
dependency on Muon.

A hard dependency on muon for polkit-kde-1 will pull in a lot of KDE-stuff 
(e.g. depends: kde-runtime) - if one not running KDE wants to install Muon, 
this is not acceptable.
Please note that Muon should work without polkit-kde-1 in a Gnome environment 
(for example), because it can also use Gnome's PolicyKit provided in 
policykit-1-gnome. And probably do so for other PolicyKit DE-specific 
implementations as well.

The thing here is, I believe: when starting KDE, Gnome's PolicyKit isn't
running, but dependencies on it are satisfied for the package
management.

So, in order to make sure some PolicyKit implementation designed for the
current DE, that should be a hard or semi-hard dependency on the
metapackage for the DE, in my opinion. I.e. "kubuntu-desktop depends
[...] polkit-kde-1 [...]"

By the way, I don't understand this (on Ubuntu Oneiric):
$ apt-cache show polkit-kde-1
[...]
Task: kubuntu-desktop, [...]

So this tells me it should be installed when installing kubuntu-desktop?
Or I might not get Tasks in apt.

2012-03-28 Thread Tim Edwards
I think the problem is that even with the 'fix' there is no hard
dependency on polkit-kde-1.

Let's look at it logically:
Muon is specifically designed to run on the desktops of unprivileged users and 
update their systems. To do that it needs root privileges and to get those it 
needs a mechanism to ask the user to authorise it to run as root.

Therefore having polkit-kde-1 installed is necessary for Muon to
function properly, so it should be a hard dependency not a 'recommends'
or anything else.

2012-03-28 Thread axel
Exactly. I was wrong with Synaptic, I guess it can't be used for update, but 
indeed I installed kubuntu-desktop on top of other DE, so I still can use 
updater from Ubuntu. Anyway, this should be solved by simply 
sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get upgrade
or a better solution: a new fixed version of muon-updater should be released 
that would install along with kubuntu-desktop.
I have kubuntu-desktop 4.8.1 from backports.

[Bug 833058] Re: Muon-updater doesn't ask for password

2012-03-28 Thread Gert van Dijk
As axel points out in comment 10: this bug is about the need to install
some package manually after Kubuntu installation (on standard Ubuntu
install) in order to do system updates. I think more people would agree
with me that installing packages manually before being able to install
updates or install new packages is very user unfriendly and should be
considered a workaround, not a fix.

Besides, did you notice the circular dependency here? Users aren't able
to solve this bug due to the bug, unless they stumble upon this bug
report and take a dive in the raw package management (something not
based on qapt). Also, as a consequence they will probably not be
installing (security) updates (or updates to solve this issue) until the
workaround is applied. And hey, shouldn't the latter be a reason to set
some level importance to this bug?

This affects still all users moving from Gnome/Unity (and probably other
DE's too) to KDE by using the Software center within their current
installation.

So, to summarize, in my opinion, this bug has *not* been solved, should
not have the status 'Fix released' and have some level op importance
set. Please reopen.

N.B. Re-reading my comment before posting: sorry for being a bit too
grumpy between the lines.

Yesterday I installed kubuntu-desktop and I had this bug. Some people in
duplicate bugs comments report that installing polkit-kde-1 solve their
problem, but I want to point out that this should be made in a way that
new users shouldn't be forced search for bugs reports and solutions to
bugs because this may easily discourage them. Please release an update
with some dependency or whatever so that user can just fix the problem
by regular update (from terminal or Synaptic).

2011-12-11 Thread Gert van Dijk
This issue is marked as 'Fix released', but I don't agree about that. As
Murz describes in comment 7, one will still need to install polkit-kde-1
manually after installing KDE on an existing regular ubuntu
installation.

Creating this 'or' dependency on polkit-kde-1 for qapt is not
sufficient, clearly.

just a note this is still an issue.

I fresh/clean installed LUbuntu 11.10 on release day, yesterday I
installed kde-desktop and switched over. I was also having this issue,
and had to install polkit-kde-1 manually.

still having the issue.  I'll try logging out and back in.

I also tried running muon under sudo from a terminal, it gave me errors
about the .conf file being owned by use 1000 not 0.

Changing policykit-1-gnome to polkit-kde-1 helps solve the problem. But
qapt-batch and muon have no hard dependency on polkit-kde-1, so if user
updates to oneric with installed policykit-1-gnome (as I got in my
system), it isn't replaced to polkit-kde-1 automatically.

Hmm, yeah.

The assumption had been that since kdebase-workspace-bin depends on
polkit-kde-1, KDE users would have it, and that since a lot of Ubuntu's
default software depended on policykit-1-gnome GNOME users would have a
policykit frontend.

This seems to have been a poor assumption, seeing as you had neither.
;-)

I'll add a or dependency on polkit-kde-1 or policykit-1-gnome to
libqapt-runtime, which does the actual polkit calls.
