I am also suffering from this bug. Software Center and Update Manager initially worked but now exhibit these exact same symptoms. I can't pin down an exact change that may have caused this. I am willing to provide any detail or debugging steps necessary to troubleshoot this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775425 Title: software center works only if started from terminal with sudo -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi rlamsfuss, thanks for your bug report. Indeed it should not be necessary (nor is it recommended) to start software-center with sudo. Would you please open a terminal and start software-center normally (no sudo), and past the output here? That will help us to determine what is preventing startup on your machine.
