Bug Description
Installation for a local deb file shows a notification message that causes a lot of confusion whether the package has been successfully installed or not.
Steps to reproduce
=======
- Download a package file (xxx.deb)
- Install the package file from command line "sudo apt install ./xxx.deb"
- A notification messages shows up at the end of the installation saying:
"Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/
-> Expected no notification or warnings if installation finished successfully.
It seems that this is only "Notifcation message" BUT it causes a lot of confusion whether the package has been installed or not. The package seems to be installed correctly from what I understand.
$ apt --version
