[resolved] Updates fail triggert by update management

Post by hhoffnung »

Hi there,
I am not sure, if this is the correct place for my issue, but so far I didn't find a better one.

Since two days the update management fails to install updates. The reason seams that
it has insufficient access rights (root). Up to now, when clicking the "install update" button
I was asked for legitimation. This doesn't happen right now.

Thanks for your help.

Can you report the output of terminal command

Code: Select all

ls -la /usr/bin/pkexec
For custom Nemo actions, useful scripts for the Cinnamon desktop, and Cinnamox themes visit my Github pages.

Mine is -rwsr-xr-x, with the setuid bit set. I'm betting that's the problem.

I was not convinced because all utils in /usr/bin are missing the sticky bit.
But I tested it anyway. Unfortunately it didn't work :(

Most of them do not need privilege escalation.

Isn't the question: How to force the update management to query the password as it had done up to now?
And presumably using the sudo command to install updates.

Having same problem. Last successful update 2022-01-27 - 0030:43 firefox package; 1st fail ~ 2022-01-27 ~2300 webkit2gtk, failed repeatedly & now all updates fail.
$ ls -la /usr/bin/ | grep 2021
shows no changes since Jul 28 2021
Cause must be elsewhere.
Does anyone know where Update Manager code lives?
Something there may have changed.

If you run the following command in a terminal, does it update?

Code: Select all

sudo apt update

Sure enough webkit2gtk shows up along with firefox.
I tried updating the Update Manager but that did NOT fix the problem.

The system is uma? but the packages are saying una upgradable from una?

I don't know, I got nothing, but why is it saying that?

Those extra ppas. Try temporarily disabling them in software sources.
Then retry your Update Manager/Refresh to get the latest distro updates.
Then you can re-enable the other sources one by one. One or more ppa repositories may
be temprarily down. UM expects all repositories to be up and available--one bad apple spoils the barrel

You need to fix the missing setuid permission on pkexec.

Code: Select all

sudo chmod 04755 /usr/bin/pkexec
Out of interest what output do you get from

Code: Select all

history | grep "755 /usr/bin/pkexec"

The same build of firefox (with una in the name) is now used for all 20.x releases, similarly all 19.x versions get a tricia version...- http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/upstream/f/firefox/
