I tried on my primary box (ubuntu 18.10 [x86_64] with xfce, lxqt & mate desktops added; xfce my usual).
When `gnome-software` was run from [whisker] menu, I got a "Unable to install ...: you do not have permission to install software" when trying to install a font (leafpad & gedit were already installed) I `sudo gnome-software` and font installed with no issues. I booted xubuntu on dx6120 & tried from terminal as before (gnome- software), then `sudo gnome-software) getting same error as prior attempts both tries :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1798236 Title: xubuntu 18.10 daily (x86 live & installed) - [gnome-]software cannot install leafpad/gedit/software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1798236/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
