[Bug 1767981] Re: Incorrect permissions on upgrade found for login

[Brian Murray]

I don't believe this has anything to do with the release upgrader, it
just happened to be the process which caused you to notice that the
permissions were incorrect.

** Package changed: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) => policykit-1
(Ubuntu)

** Changed in: policykit-1 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

Title:
  Incorrect permissions on upgrade found for login

Status in policykit-1 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I upgraded from 17.10 to 18.04, I ran 
  czajkowski at penny:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade
  czajkowski at penny:~$ sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade
  czajkowski at penny:~$ sudo apt install update-manager-core

  
  Upgrade then started and about 4 mins the Error 1 image appeared, Incorrect permissions on /usr/lib/policykit-1/polkit-agent-helper-1(needs to be setuid root)

  a few mins later the login appeared for me to enter my password,  it
  would not recognise my password Error 2.
