lapionhello06:56
diogenes_hello06:57
lapionsince the removal of gksudo I am being asked to select a sudo user even though the current user has sudo rights.06:58
lapionthings such as flash installer is broken over this06:59
lapionas is synaptic07:00
lapionpkexec07:00
diogenes_lapion, why u removed gksudo?07:01
lapionubuntu 18.04 has no gksudo anymore07:02
lapiondebian removed it07:02
diogenes_and?07:03
lapionxubuntu also has no gksudo anymore07:03
lapionupon upgrade gksudo is removed07:03
diogenes_but it came with your system07:03
diogenes_u didnt upgrade07:04
lapionand if one has more then one user with sudo group one will be asked which user to use in stead of simply assuming the current user is the destined sudo user07:04
lapiondiogenes_, it came with 16.04 witht he upgrade to 18.04 it got removed07:04
diogenes_u said u removed it or the upgrade removed it?07:06
lapiondiogenes_, the upgrade of course otherwhise I would not be here07:06
diogenes_then it's a broken upgrade process07:07
lapionno diogenes_ it has been removed from ubuntu07:07
lapionit is no longer in the repositories07:07
diogenes_i understand but it must no create issue07:08
diogenes_if it creates issue then it's a broken upgrade, something went wrong07:09
diogenes_that's why i prefer fresh install07:10
lapionwell diogenes_ add a second user to the sudo group install synaptic package manager and try to run it from menu->system tools->synaptic that will not work, then run the command from a terminial (synaptic.pkexec) to find out why it will not run from menu07:11
lapionthis same behaviour happens with all pkexec-ed programs07:12
lapionif one has more then one user with sudo rights07:12
diogenes_lapion, i'm on a different distro rn :)07:13
lapioneven if the user running the pkexec  command is part of sudo group07:13
lapiondiogenes_, for some reason pkexec does not use /usr/lib/policykit-1/polkit-agent-helper-107:25
lapionand in stead tries to ask the question from a terminal window07:26

xubuntu40wI wanto upgrade my bionic 32 bit xubuntu to cosmic. Ho can I do that?21:12
diogenes_xubuntu40w, afaik cosmic is 64 only? not sure though21:13
xubuntu40wthere is 32 bits version for xubuntu21:14
xubuntu40whttps://xubuntu.org/download/21:15
xubuntu40wbut no way to upgrade. do-release-upgrade refuses to do it21:16
diogenes_yep there is, pardon, then  you need to first upgrade to bionic21:16
diogenes_and then to cosmic21:16
diogenes_or you're on bionic already21:16
xubuntu40wI am on bionic21:17
diogenes_did you set it to upgrade whenever a new release is available/.21:20
diogenes_or you set to notify for LTS only?21:20
xubuntu40wI set it to upgrade whenever a new release is available/21:24
diogenes_try:  do-release-upgrade -d21:24
xubuntu40wno luck21:27
xubuntu40wchanging bionic into cosmic in /etc/apt/sources.list allows to upgrade. But it is not friendly-user21:48
diogenes_you mean not user friendly :)21:49
