After the update to 1.0 - of course - the system asks for the password again. would it be possible to add an option to maybe 1.1 where you can set up permissions to allow a passwordless update? Greetz

Had to ln -s pod2man into /usr/bin for it to compile (I think lightdm is screwing up my path), but it's in, and I love it! Was using yapan, but kalu just shot to the top of my list....

Yep, i got that (yaourt -Syua) I allready wondered why i was asked for a password, as i tryed to allow everything via sudo. I will try the policy file, thx for the tip! EDIT: Works perfectly, thanks!

kalu-dbus is started automatically w/ root privileges already, that's not the issue. If you really want to allow sysupgrade w/out password check, I think you'll need to change the policy (in /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.jjk.kalu.policy) and replace auth_admin with yes As for AUR upgrade, that's not gonna happen. kalu's updater simply provides a little GUI for libalpm's sysupgrade, nothing more. But you can have a button (on AUR notifications) to start an (AUR) helper of your choice to take care of it.

I'll give it a shot, seems to be nice... Is is possible (and if: how) to avoid entering the password? Can i add an rc script that starts kalu-dbus with root-privileges or something like that? As feature request: Would be nice to add an AUR upgrade, but i am surely not the first to mention ;-)

oh right, little mixup there between SyncDbsInTooltip & SaneSortOrder... Thanks, both this and the typo will be fixed in 0.1.5.1, coming up later today.

Hello, first of all thanks for your app, it's awesome! I'm experiencing a small issue: in the misc tab unchecking "Show if databases can by (be?) synchronized in tooltip" doesn't work ... SyncDbsInTooltip in kalu.conf is always set to "1"

Kalu is on it's way to become default update manager for Nosonja. https://plus.google.com/b/102479162698978916755/102479162698978916755/posts
