Muon updates does not ask for password

[Bumpalot]

Muon Updates displays all updates, on selecting "install", it does not ask for password..
This popup message displays

Tried several time, ..same result!

I have seen this recently but only in a secondary session.
I use x2go and do not try to take control of an existing session, so in the secondary session I get this if I try to apply updates with the Muon Updater.
The main session does not have any issue.

Tried Muon Package Manager too - does the same thing! Apparently there is a long list of recent bugs.
I used Synaptic to get the updates.
Thanks

glad you got your updates ............

and how you get them is of course your decision , but if you use the comand line you will get (usually) better info on what is not working if something go's south .

I do this

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

to do my updates whenever I feal like or if I see a notifacation of some .

your original problem looks (maby) like a policy kit problem .
