Title:
Cannot toggle additional sources until authentication has been granted
through other means
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Software Sources as an admin user (not as root; don't do this through
Synaptic).
2. Try to check or uncheck the Cdrom source or a source in the Other Software
section. Nothing will happen.
3. Do another action that triggers a PolicyKit authentication dialog (toggle
the multiverse or universe source, or add a source in Other Software)
4. Repeat step 3. This time, the source will be toggled appropriately.
In step 2, the following lands in stderr:
Traceback (most recent call last):
