I see the problem in i386 and amd64 installed systems. The Lubuntu Software Center works when started from the command line sudo lubuntu-software-center but not with gksudo lubuntu-software-center and not with sudo -H lubuntu-software-center
Synaptic starts from the command line via gksudo, but not from the menu. There seems to be a general problem with elevated permissions from the menu and when using the elevation methods recommended for GUI applications. Comment #13 looks promising to squash this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1424362 Title: no permissions to install packages in vivid daily lubuntu beta 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lubuntu-software-center/+bug/1424362/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
