Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-center

When I try to install any of the packages from the Ubuntu Software
Center (Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center) the following happens:

1) The Install popup comes up with two buttons to choose from: Install and 
Website
2) If I click on Install a popup to authenticate comes up and shifts from left 
to right very fast (few milliseconds) and then disappears.

Thus, I am never able to go any further with the installation!

In some cases (after several attempts and rapidly clicking my left mouse
button) I able to stabilize the authenticate popup. However, if I click
on the authenticate button, nothing obvious happens --- the package
never installs.

Note:  I am using Ubuntu 9.10- the Karmic Koala - released in October
2009 and supported until April 2011.
