Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

After a standard system upgrade from lucid to maverick, update-manager insists 
on the root-password instead of the current user's password (who is still a 
member of admin). The requested action is "org.debian.apt.upgrade-packages".
update-manager worked fine prior to the upgrade. 
On a freshly installed maverick system, this problem does not exists, but both 
my upgraded systems show this behavior.

The root-cause is probably somewhere in policykit-1, please let me know
what additional information is needed.
