[Bug 1870748] Re: Authentication Window Stays Open

[Mark Smith]

I attempted to make a change to a repository by launching Software &
Updates and editing an unselected package from eoan to fossa - the
authentication window persisted at the top left of my screen throughout
- even after entering my credentials in the central authentication
window that popped up (and went as normal)

Title:
  Authentication Window Stays Open

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I left the Beta of Focal Fossa running overnight and when I logged in
  this morning, I found an open Authentication window with the message
  "To change software repository settings, you need to authenticate"
  (see attached screenshot).

  I enter my password and the password field grey out.

  The window stays persistent but is "invisible" to the mouse - i.e. if I click anywhere in it, it actually clicks the thing behind it. 
  The Cancel button does nothing.

  I had this same issue yesterday when actually running Software &
  Updates.
