symptoms in a virgin live 22.04 daily session (see below)
* launching from terminal works as expected
sudo software-properties-qt

## process & errors - live Kubuntu 22.04 daily
similar behaviour, hoever password-asking window never appears. Terminal
errors differ from above:
* Settings > Software Sources
gives error on terminal:
> org.kde.kdesu: Daemon not safe (not sgid), not using it.
>
> Don't need password!!
>
>kf.su: [./src/stubprocess.cpp : 255 ] Unknown request: "ok"
