[01:09] <mozmck> I'm trying to use pkexec in a bash script with no success.  I have a script called "installer" that just has the command "dpkg -i *.deb"  If I use gksudo ./installer, it works great.  But gksudo is not installed in Xubuntu by default so that is not an option for me.
[01:10] <mozmck> pkexec tells me it can't find ./installer  So I passed it the full path to the installer, and then dpkg says it can't find the deb files.  So I added a cd <location of files> in the ./installer script, and that didn't seem to help.
[01:11] <mozmck> Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
[01:11] <knome> mozmck, for starters, this isn't really the support channel
[01:11] <knome> !pkexec
[01:11] <ubottu> pkexec is a PolicyKit tool that allows an authorized user to run (graphical) applications as another user, similar to !gksu.
[01:12] <mozmck> ok, which channel is?
[01:12] <knome> #xubuntu
[01:13] <mozmck> ok, thanks
[09:30] <Unit193> I seem to be missing the link to delete a testcase, I realized technically I did http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/351/builds/105604/testcases/1658/results
[09:50] <slickymasterWork> Unit193, are you an admin there?
[09:59] <Unit193> Of course not.
[10:02] <slickymasterWork> hmm, that's odd
[10:02] <slickymasterWork> because I am and I'm not seeing any delete option
[10:03] <slickymasterWork> I only have an 'Edit' option
[10:03] <slickymasterWork> flocculant ^^
=== link is now known as Guest72994
[12:30] <knome> slickymaster, maybe you are not an admin, just an editor or sth
[12:33] <knome> Unit193, what exactly are you trying to delete?
[12:34] <knome> Unit193, move upgrade from the core testsuite to the upgrade testsuite?
[12:35] <knome> and tbe, i don't think there is a "delete" action, only disable
[12:35] <knome> which is silly because now the tracker is full with disabled things
[14:12] <flocculant> you can delete results - though they appear to just strike through 
[14:13] <flocculant> Unit193: you've not got rights to do any of that - what exactly is it you want? 
[14:36] <slickymasterWork> flocculant, but not testcases?
[18:36] <flocculant> slickymaster: nope - there till the electrons stop spinning on the server 
[20:25] <Unit193> flocculant: Right, I was just trying to change *my* testcase results.  After running my usual, noticed the 'core upgrade', which technically fits mine better as I don't have xubuntu-desktop.
[20:25] <flocculant> aah right - you should be able to edit that 
[20:26] <flocculant> mmm
[20:27] <flocculant> don't appear to see any from you
[20:28] <flocculant> oh nvm - assumed you were talking about core :p
[20:29] <flocculant> do you see a 'pencil' by your result - if you do you might be able to do something - if not I would need to delete it 
[20:57] <Unit193> OK, I'll have to check.
[20:57] <Unit193> But, I did upgrade one hardware to Xenial! \o/
[20:57] <Unit193> Plymouth even seemed to work...
[20:58] <flocculant> woohoo
[20:58] <flocculant> Unit193: if you can't - add your new one and I'll nix the old one 
[20:59] <Unit193> Ok, will do, have to head out now.
[20:59] <flocculant> yep - have a good whatever :)
[21:00] <Unit193> Yeah no, I'm helping someone go to the store, it'll be awful.
[21:00] <flocculant> :)
[21:23] <pleia2> flocculant: no word from jcastro re: vps, and I haven't seen him around this week :\
[21:24] <flocculant> k- kind of assumed that was the case or you'd have said something :)
[21:24]  * pleia2 nods
[21:24]  * flocculant guessed you'd say that too :p
[21:25] <flocculant> I guess we'll want to move - pretty sure knome  wants to - and one more assumption being you'd want to see the back of it too
