I have got a bad feeling about using the authentication dialog as a confirmation dialog. If the system is configured to allow all package operations to an user automatically you won't get any confirmation at all. The operation would just start.
The broken cache is really a nasty problem that needs to be fixed before you can continue installing/removing any other software. So a small icon is not very discoverable. Why don't you show an in-app-notifcation below the toolbar with a small text and a button "Repair system". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/635101 Title: Broken apt cache error message is out of date To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/aptdaemon/+bug/635101/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
