Bug Description
Binary package hint: software-center
The Authenticate dialog hangs for a long time with no indication that anything is happening. The dialog is misleading as it pops up after I have entered my password but states, "To install or remove software, you need to authenticate." Entering my password authenticates my identity. So, I have already authenticated... Screenshot attached.

I confirm this problem. But it's not restricted to update manager, The same problem occurs with gnome-screensaver. (After authentication, the screen is not being unlocked. The dialog reports "checking" forever.)
