Title:
  Ubuntu 1404 b2 - "you don't have priviledges to install updates" and
  any system modification is refused

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a serious bug as it stops all updates even corrections! It
  also stops logging out as this needs priveldges. The only solution is
  the power switch! Also, even as a VM, rather than as a native OS, this
  can mean host shutdown.
