Public bug reported:
When update-manager finds that updates are ready to install, I click on
"Install updates" button. However, in the window to authenticate for the update
procedure I cannot enter my password.
As the attached scresnshot shows, the password field is greyed out.
The user I'm running the system with is able to sudo root, so running update
manager like this:
sudo update-manager
so this can be used as a workaround.
