    Install update without password Kubuntu 18.04

    Hello,
    I seek advice everywhere and I am not wise. Does anyone know how to update the applications in Kubuntu 18.04 without a password, please?

      I'm not sure why it would be necessary or wise to to that, but that thread describes the process perfectly ...

        Thank you very much for the quick answers. As soon as I wrote my request, I found a solution. Create text file package-manager.pkla in /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d and reboot.

        Insert to file this:

        [Install package file]
        Identity=unix-group:admin
        Action=org.debian.apt.install-file;org.debian.apt.update-cache;org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages;org.debian.apt.upgrade-packages
        ResultActive=yes

        [Install package synaptic linuxmint]
        Identity=unix-group:usename
        Action=com.ubuntu.pkexec.synaptic
        ResultActive=yes

        [Change add repo]
        Identity=unix-group:admin
        Action=com.ubuntu.softwareproperties.applychanges; org.debian.apt.change-repository
        ResultActive=yes

        [usbcreator format]
        Identity=unix-group:admin
        Action=com.ubuntu.usbcreator.format
        ResultActive=yes

        [Install bootloader]
        Identity=unix-group:admin
        Action=com.ubuntu.usbcreator.bootloader
        ResultActive=yes

        [Add users]
        Identity=unix-group:admin
        Action=org.freedesktop.accounts.user-administration
        ResultActive=yes

        [kubuntu update]
        Identity=unix-group:usename
        Action=org.freedesktop.packagekit.system-update
        ResultActive=yes

        I try sudo visudo, but I don't understand it correctly.
