Am 06. Jun, 2020 schwätzte Aaron Jones so: moin moin, > Synaptic right? That's what I figured, but we found muon. I don't care which. But, how do I enable non-root package install? Using muon, it asks for authentication to an account with root access. Don't want to grant full-root, just package install and removal. Currently, searching via muon, then installing via command line. The eventual goal is all command line :), but baby steps. We will be exploring debian-junior in depth this summer. Reading Pepper & Carrot now, then some kdenlive howtos. ciao, der.hans >> On Jun 6, 2020, at 2:59 PM, der.hans via PLUG-discuss wrote: >> >> moin moin, >> >> Is there a way to allow users to install and uninstall packages from the >> GUI? >> >> I do it by starting an xterm and having sudo rules for apt :). >> >> But, I would like to give someone clicky clicky access. >> >> The particular use case is Ubuntu and debian running KDE. >> >> I want passwordless clicky clicky access to "apt update", "apt >> full-upgrade", "apt install ", "apt remove " and such. >> >> ciao, >> >> der.hans >> -- >> # https://www.LuftHans.com https://www.PhxLinux.org >> # "I interviewed Jonathan Winters once in the late '80s, it was as if he were >> # narrating a hallucination that I didn't see." -- Terry Gross, 03Aug2006 >> --------------------------------------------------- >> PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org >> To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: >> https://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > -- # https://www.LuftHans.com https://www.PhxLinux.org # When in doubt, choose the interesting. -- der.hans
