The duplicate bug is for lxde. I'm using openbox, and it didn't start polkit. So I started it with... /usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 & And now it asks for a password and can save settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1360488 Title: software-properties-gtk does not request root permission when choosing repositories in "Other Software" tab To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/1360488/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
