Reported In:

SUMMARY
Upon startup, Discover 6.4.4 does not ask for user password for security
authorization. I'm reporting this as a major bug since a skilled hacker or even
a guest user on a shared Linux computer might be able to install or remove any
package or set of packages by using Discover since the user password is not
being asked by Discover for security authorization upon startup.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start Discover
OBSERVED RESULT
Upon startup, Discover 6.4.4 fails to ask for user password for security
authorization.
EXPECTED RESULT
Upon startup, Discover 6.4.4 should ask for user password for security
authorization.
