Not authorized to run synaptic
Hi all,
I'm running Debian Testing, using XFCE. I run synaptic package manager
from a launcher I made a few years ago. After a system upgrade today,
I can no longer run synaptic from the launcher.
Using the command line (same command as the launcher), I got this:
$ /usr/bin/synaptic-pkexec
Error executing command as another user: Not authorized
This incident has been reported.
If I use sudo, then it works, but pkexec used to open a graphical
password input to run synaptic as root, which is what I want, for
opening it using the launcher. What did I break?
