All the versions of Ubuntu are meant to be stable and secure and I don't think that calling edgy unsecure is a fair statement. Using those tools require to be logged with an user from the admin group. Right asking for the password again is better, if somebody can connect with your admin user you already a problem though
---- The philosophy of ubuntu (as I have understood it) is that you can use, when you're a single user, the first user (which is an administrator) for your daily work because at every change of the system you must enter your password. Shurely it is much saver to use, in any case, a unprivileged user for your daily work, but very few desktop user do it because it is not very comfortable (e. g. you must change user if you want to make installations; the notification of updates only shows up if you're loged in as an administrator). The problem of that bug are, in my opinion, other bugs which led to the execution of code with the rights of the user. Finally I do not considerate edgy completely unsecure or unstable; I just considerate it not as stable as dapper. -- Admin tools require admin group membership https://launchpad.net/bugs/59946 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
