Checking some more I cannot reproduce this from update-manager either, in xenial even, with the pkla file saying "sudo" in addition to "admin", so I assume this was misconfigured locally (user in sudo group, but auth_admin override for admin group).
My understanding is that the sudo group replaced the admin group a long while ago. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1591672 Title: update-manager does not obey require-password policy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptdaemon/+bug/1591672/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
