On a fresh install of ubuntu 10.10 desktop i386 (Wubi install) I got this: - I installed apt-p2p : sudo apt-get install apt-p2p - I started Update Manager, clicked Check - then I clicked Install Updates T he auth dialog appeared and I entered the password. After clicking the confirm button, the dialog reappeared, but this time with no password field. I could open the details, but the Authenticate button did nothing.
I just stayed that way, until I started to report the bug. Then I clicked to the dialog text, trying to copy it, but on click the dialog disappeared and the Update Manager window redisplayed the content, similar as after the Check: blank list of updates for a second, then showing them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445303 Title: policykit-1 password dialog sometimes hangs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
