Public bug reported:
1. Open Update Manager, ideally when there are updates available for install
2. Click Install Updates.
3. A polkit password prompt will appear. Type in the wrong password and hit
enter.
4. update-manger freezes and this message shows is run from the terminal:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/defer/__init__.py", line 472, in
_inline_callbacks
result = gen.throw(result.type, result.value, result.traceback)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/aptdaemon/gtk3widgets.py", line 644,
in _run
yield self._transaction.run()
aptdaemon.errors.NotAuthorizedError:
org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.NotAuthorized: ('system-bus-name', {'name':
':1.54'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages
Alternatively, you can just hit cancel in step 3 as it will also lead to
step 4.
