Bug Description

I experienced a crash of the plasma shell. It restarted right away and the "Crash Reporting Assistant" came up.

While trying to file a bug using this assistant it informs me that further debug symbols need to be installed, it shows me a list of packages it likes to install and when I say ok, it claims that it does not have authorization to install them, or that no authorization was provided.

It sounds to me like it just failed to bring up the password dialog?!
