Public bug reported:

1) lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
Release:        10.04

2) apt-cache policy ubuntu-desktop
ubuntu-desktop:
  Installed: 1.197
  Candidate: 1.197
  Version table:
 *** 1.197 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What I expected to happen is if I uninstalled, then immediately
reinstalled ubuntu-desktop, the requirement to type my password to
install packages via Synaptic Package Manager or update software via
Update Manager would still exist.

4) What happened instead is that after uinstalling, then immediately
reinstalling the ubuntu-desktop package, if I install or uninstall a
package via Synaptic Package Manager, or update a package via Update
Manager, it no longer requires my password.
