Hi guys, First, sorry for my broken english. This is from Dailydave. Have a look at this bug report from RedHat (Fedora12). Hilarious! https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=534047 "Bug 534047 - All users get to install software on a machine they do not have the root password to" All these years working to have a standard and controlled environment. Now all this is bs and everybody should be able to install whatever they want in a desktop environment because the packages are signed and are trusted (secure). "PackageKit allows you to install signed content from signed repositories without a password by default. It only asks you to authenticate if anything is unsigned or the signatures are wrong. " Fail! Regards, Xavier Garcia
