[Bug 635101] Re: Broken apt cache error message is out of date

Sebastian, fair enough, thanks. I've separated the confirmation alert from the PolicyKit alert in the design, and specified that it should block any software installation. Would you be able to move the confirmation alert out of USC into Aptdaemon and update the design? ** Description changed: U

I have got a bad feeling about using the authentication dialog as a confirmation dialog. If the system is configured to allow all package operations to an user automatically you won't get any confirmation at all. The operation would just start. The broken cache is really a nasty problem that needs

Talking about rebuilding here is incorrect. Additional software need to be installed or removed. This is not just a rebuild. The resolver of apt isn't always perfect and people like to mix repositories - so this action could result in removing or installing a large amount of packages. In the end yo
