Neon user edition polkit-kde-agent-1/xenial,now 4:5.13.5-0xneon+16.04+xenial+build64 amd64 To reproduce: - In a limited user account session, open software updates in discover. - Click "Update All" - Enter password of admin/sudo user Expected: Dialog takes the admin/sudo user password to unlock privileges. Actual: Dialog asks "Password for root:", shows Authentication failure when the admin user password is entered. This won't work on Ubuntu because the root user is locked by default. This bug makes updating through discover software updates impossible on KDE Neon (in a standard user session).
Created attachment 114833 [details] Authentication fails on admin password
Manjaro Plasma OS ask for "Authentication" password when I didn't require (2FA). Using the "TIME-SHIFT" app, I cannot access it without the password? How can I bypass this, so that I can activate a (snapshot) in Time-shift that works? Thanks!
I have started to experience this on Kubuntu 20.04 LTS recently, maybe 2-3 weeks ago. Initially it didn't click as a problem as I often work/update via the terminal, but after a few occurrences, I started to search for this issue on the Internet. I have to say that I don't recall doing anything special that could trigger this, just everyday work and periodic updates via apt.
