Description Patrick Silva 2018-02-09 18:13:04 UTC 
Today Discover found update for a flatpak runtime (Gnome 3.24) and for packages from neon dev unstable repositories.
I canceled the password dialog, packages from neon repos were not updated, but Discover updated the flatpak runtime.

I'm unsure this is an issue.
Comment 2 Patrick Silva 2018-02-09 21:40:56 UTC 
user cancels authorization and packages are installed anyway?
Confuse at least.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2018-02-09 22:30:27 UTC 
I think this is definitely an issue. Hitting cancel here indicates that the user doesn't want to install the packages. Having them installed anyway is pretty unexpected.

I agree. This of course happens because flatpak updates don't require a sudo password, but users shouldn't need to think like that IMO.
