Greetings arm experts; Raspian has a showstopper in its package management dept.
1. In spite of being able to do about 99% of the stuff with sudo, over an ssh -Y login, there is one glaring omission. There is no reason even when X is not running, why I shouldn't be able to run synaptic-pkexec with it exporting the gui window to what ever machine I am logged into it from. Except its asking for the root pw, and root doesn't have one. Sudo bash gets me root, but then root can't open the display, so I am stuck with the text based apt. Does anyone have a suggestion for a fix? Having a gui to manage packages makes it a heck of a lot easier to do.
