[Bug 1799592] [NEW] Ubuntu Budgie's 18.04 Software Updater has no details for update but wants my superuser password

[Adrian Romanelli]

Public bug reported:

Running Ubuntu Budgie 18.04.1 LTS, Gnome 3.28.2.

Software Updater is prompting me to apply an update, but there is no
‘Details of updates’ listed, nor are there any ‘Technical description’
notes. It says that “3.7 MB will be downloaded.”

Was asked to report this per: https://discourse.ubuntubudgie.org/t
