Surprise, the bug is _still_ gone after downgrading those packages (and I am sure they were downgraded). In fact, I rebooted after trying again, because I was afraid there could be some environment variable still hanging from your new packages.
I also tried to to purge all policiykit packages from Synaptic, and reinstall the ones from the ubuntu repos, because I have the feeling that your new packages might have left some residual config files somewhere that make it work even with the older packages. But too many things depend on policikit, purging policykit would wipe most of my install. I see if I can force a purge from the command line, just the four packages you mentioned (without checking for dependencies). I am sure one of the 500 flags for apt-get does that :-) Maybe you know exactly and you are around :-) Thanks for all the work! -- [jaunty] kpackagekit doesn't prompt for user password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353278 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
