I can confirm that on a fresh Kubuntu 13.10 install this bug shows up
again, and reinstalling polkit-kde-1 has no effect.

Reinstalling polkit-kde-1 doesn't work for me. I even tried;
sudo apt-get purge polkit-kde-1
sudo apt-get install polkit-kde-1
I suspect it doesn't work because it doesn't actually restart the polkit
process. Only logging out and logging back in does that. When I do so,

From comment 21 by Tim Edwards (tkedwards):
if you see this problem even though polkit-kde-1 is installed I reckon
you've hit a new issue and need to open a new bug.

Same problem as Rosemary Hendley (catbells). Fresh install of 12.04.1
LTS (amd 64bit) on a new computer (AMD A6 APU). Did not connect to the
Internet to install patches during OS install. After OS install, and
connecting to the Internet, muon-installer and muon-updater launched
from the GUI
Yesterday, I did a fresh install of Kubuntu. I've never used it before.
Muon gives me the same message that Sumski reports #1.
Also kubuntu-firefox-installer failed to run because of a lack of proper
authorisation. I don't know whether this is a related issue.
About me: I'm pretty computer
Rosemary what do the following commands output on your system?:
dpkg -l | grep polkit-kde
cat /etc/os-release
The bug should be fixed in 12.10 and possibly also in the 12.04.1
release.

I've just completed a fresh install of Kubuntu 12.04 (64bit), and system
update to latest KDE (4.8.3), kernel, and whatever else was updated.
Prior to the update, Muno was working just fine. Just after update and
reboot, Muon now gives me this error dialog. Polkit-kde-1k is
installed.

@tkedwards: it seems the initial bug description was forgotten during
the discussion: Trying to use muon-updater , but it doesn't work. When
selecting Install updates, the following message appers: This operation

I just did sudo apt-get
Correction: for some reason, I had to repeat the sudo apt-get install

behaving properly.

@a_flj
The original reporter of the bug posted in the first comment Installing
polkit-kde-1 solves the issue, should polkit be added at least to Recommends?.
The rest of the discussion was about how best to ensure polkit-kde-1 gets
pulled in by dependencies.
From your 2nd comment it looks like
I have this problem since at least 11.04, hoped that some next release
will fix it but it's still present in precise. polkit-kde-1 package is

pawmar if you're still having problems after polkit-kde-1 is installed I
think that's a separate bug.
The problems reported in this bug were all resolved once polkit-kde-1
installed - the bug (now fixed) was that that package was not installed
automatically with kubuntu-desktop.

In precise the situation is better, as polkit-kde-1 is now pulled in by
the kubuntu-desktop metapackage.

Yesterday I installed kubuntu-desktop and I had this bug. Some people in
duplicate bugs comments report that installing polkit-kde-1 solve their
problem, but I want to point out that this should be made in a way that
new users shouldn't be forced search for bugs reports and solutions to
bugs
As axel points out in comment 10: this bug is about the need to install
some package manually after Kubuntu installation (on standard Ubuntu
install) in order to do system updates. I think more people would agree
with me that installing packages manually before being able to install
updates or
Exactly. I was wrong with Synaptic, I guess it can't be used for update, but
indeed I installed kubuntu-desktop on top of other DE, so I still can use
updater from Ubuntu. Anyway, this should be solved by simply
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
or a better solution: a new fixed version
I think the problem is that even with the 'fix' there is no hard
dependency on polkit-kde-1.
Let's look at it logically:
Muon is specifically designed to run on the desktops of unprivileged users and
update their systems. To do that it needs root privileges and to get those it
needs a mechanism
Tim, your explanation in comment 13 is unfortunately jumping to
conclusions; it isn't *that* simple as you suggest, assuming you mean a
dependency on Muon.
A hard dependency on muon for polkit-kde-1 will pull in a lot of KDE-stuff
(e.g. depends: kde-runtime) - if one not running KDE wants to
Ok I didn't realise it was that complicated. In my case I install a
'Kubuntu' system by first installing Ubuntu and then installing the
kubuntu-desktop metapackage, since I want to have all the config tools
that come with Ubuntu and I find some of the GTK apps better than any
QT-based alternative
This issue is marked as 'Fix released', but I don't agree about that. As
Murz describes in comment 7, one will still need to install polkit-kde-1
manually after installing KDE on an existing regular ubuntu
installation.
Creating this 'or' dependency on polkit-kde-1 for qapt is not
sufficient,
just a note this is still an issue.
I fresh/clean installed LUbuntu 11.10 on release day, yesterday I
installed kde-desktop and switched over. I was also having this issue,
and had to install polkit-kde-1 manually.

Changing policykit-1-gnome to polkit-kde-1 helps solve the problem. But
qapt-batch and muon have no hard dependency on polkit-kde-1, so if user
updates to oneric with installed policykit-1-gnome (as I got in my
system), it isn't replaced to polkit-kde-1 automatically.

Hmm, yeah.
The assumption had been that since kdebase-workspace-bin depends on
polkit-kde-1, KDE users would have it, and that since a lot of Ubuntu's
default software depended on policykit-1-gnome GNOME users would have a
policykit frontend.
This seems to have been a poor assumption, seeing as
