Bug Description

Despite I've got Lubuntu today's version (update 2017-08-27), I cannot update to French some applis still in English

(all the following is an approximate translation, because these parts are actually in French)
I go to: preferences > languages update
- 1st windows in response: languages not completely installed
- 2nd windows in response: impossible to install languages completely
- 3rd windows in response: you are not authorized to perform this action

if I click on details, I can read the following:
org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name': ':1.86'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages

So for example, Libre Office is in English instead of French

PS:
$ uname -a

Same issue w/ another laptop more recent (2016) and more powerful i5-6200,
RAM = 4 Go.
And also 64 bits EFI instead of 32 bits MBR.

uname -a
Linux micronet 4.12.0.11-generic #12-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 11 12:26:42:UTC
2017 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

So it's a general problem of this Lubuntu 17.10 which is not released yet,
then the bug can be fixed on time ... hopefully, Thx
