moin moin,

I believe that muon uses polkit.  You should be able to create your own rules to allow muon to install packages without having root access.

Forgot about polkit. Never used it, but have seen it mentioned. Will look
at it. Danke!

ciao,

Is there a way to allow users to install and uninstall packages from the
GUI?

I do it by starting an xterm and having sudo rules for apt :).

But, I would like to give someone clicky clicky access.

The particular use case is Ubuntu and debian running KDE.

I want passwordless clicky clicky access to "apt update", "apt
full-upgrade", "apt install <packages>", "apt remove <package>" and such.

ciao,
