[Bug 1844049] [NEW] Other Software checkboxes don't always open the privilege elevations window

[Gert Oja]

Public bug reported:

Disabling repos under Other Software usually doesn't open up the
password window like it should. The window just turns grey but I can use
it when I click on it as if nothing happened.
