2008-08-11 14:09:29 Michael Vogt update-manager: statusexplanation Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help make Ubuntu better. Could you please tell me whether this happens only with update-manager, or does it happen with any application that requires executing as root (eg, Software Sources or Synaptic). If this is the case, it might be a bug in gksu instead. Thanks Thanks for this bugreport. Could you please open a termianl and run "gksu id" and let me know if that works (or hangs) and what that outputs? Could you also please install the latest version of libgksu from hardy-proposed and check if that fixes the issue?
