The facility where, if you type a command that does not exist, Fedora offers to install the relevant package, is quite helpful. But I have just realized that it does not seem to ask for authentication when it does this. For example:

/home/rikiheck/ > sudo -K
/home/rikiheck/ > fooyin
bash: fooyin: command not found...
Install package 'fooyin' to provide command 'fooyin'? [N/y] y

 * Waiting in queue...
The following packages have to be installed:
 fooyin-0.9.2-1.fc43.x86_64     A customizable music player
 kdsingleapplication-qt6-1.1.0-13.fc43.x86_64   KDAB's helper class for single-instance policy applications (Qt6)
Proceed with changes? [N/y] y

 * Waiting in queue...
 * Waiting for authentication...
 * Waiting in queue...
 * Downloading packages...
 * Requesting data...
 * Testing changes...
 * Installing packages...

Followed by a bunch more messages and the program opening. How can this be?
