I have this problem too.
Running fresh Lucid install with all recent patches on. Kernel:
2.6.32-22-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 3 19:31:57 UTC 2010 x86_64
GNU/Linux.
The above does not work for me. However, if I start
/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 from a terminal
window, I get:
--------------->>
g...@roadrunner-u:~$
/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
(polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:3748): GLib-GObject-WARNING **:
cannot register existing type `_PolkitError'
(polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:3748): GLib-CRITICAL **:
g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failed
<<----------------
and while I leave
/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 running the
Software Center runs as expected.
Some more info.
Running Software Center from a terminal window gives:
--------------->>
g...@roadrunner-u:~$ /usr/bin/software-center
/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/apt/aptcache.py:40: GtkWarning:
gtk_container_add: assertion `GTK_IS_CONTAINER (container)' failed
gtk.main_iteration()
<<----------------
And pressing install for some application then adds:
------------------>>
WARNING:root:_on_trans_error: org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.NotAuthorized:
('system-bus-name', {'name': ':1.56'}) is not authorized:
org.debian.apt.install-packages
** Message: console message: undefined @1: ReferenceError: Can't find variable:
showProgress
<<-------------------
Also tried running Software Center from a terminal with sudo. This gives:
--------------------->>
g...@roadrunner-u:~$ sudo /usr/bin/software-center
[sudo] password for gmos:
/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/apt/aptcache.py:40: GtkWarning:
gtk_container_add: assertion `GTK_IS_CONTAINER (container)' failed
gtk.main_iteration()
<<--------------------
but installations work fine after this point.
Hope this helps solving the problem.
