Thats what I thought would happen. Seems to be a problem with
policykit, not the update-manager. Changing package and marking back to
new.
** Package changed: update-manager (Ubuntu) => policykit (Ubuntu)

synaptic simply disables the Apply button, but was much more interesting
to try software-center without using sudo, because it has the same
problem, and it logged something to see:
tai@Tai-Sviluppo-01:~$ software-center
2011-05-02 09:11:07,143 - softwarecenter.app - INFO - software-center-agent
Hmm, how about another program that uses sudo? For example, try running
this without using sudo:
synaptic

Thats odd. Running gksu should still ask you for a password since you
are asking for root privileges. Anyway, since it runs under sudo but
not under your user account, I am betting its a local user error and not
a system wide bug. Lets try removing the update-manager and putting a
fresh one in.
I confirm that in this way it works correctly, because it does not need
to ask the password.

Ok, try running the update-manager like this:
gksu update-manager
See if it starts up properly.

Yes, I'm still having this problem, and consider that I can update only
from the terminal command line, because the gui tool update-manager
fails.
