Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. gksudo is used gain root privledges, so if you click "Check" just before hand to update the list of packages, it will not need to ask for the password again to Install the updates.
If this is not the case, are the updates still installed or do they fail to install? ** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Update Manager: Install Updates Fails To Reuest Authentication https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290608 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
