Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
Not sure how this happened however ..... I have a machine I use as a
media centre. It logs in automatically to a non privileged account. This
morning - forgetting I was in this account I ran Update Manager. It
asked for my password, without thinking I gave it my privileged account
password. It accepted and performed the update/upgrade. At no time was I
asked for my user id.
