So you've found the info better than I did! I reckon you did not issue
this command through VNC? In that case, that would make things trickier.
As I suspected, there's something wrong with ConsoleKit, which should at
least have considered you as local for my tricks to work. You may get
more information by running the ConsoleKit daemon manually, just like
you did for PolicyKit: it's /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon.
I'm not sure you should open a separate report right now, because what
we are debugging is not a problem in users-admin, as it's getting
broader with every step we make. It may well be that the whole failure
is linked in some way that I can't really explain now, as I'm not
familiar with ConsoleKit. For now, I'm moving the bug to that package,
and another against update-manager, hoping that somebody can help
debugging the links between both problems.
