[Bug 943235] [NEW] "System policy prevents installing the bootloader" is nonsense

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Nathan Williams (nathwill):

usb-creator-gtk 0.2.34, Ubuntu 11.10

Perhaps it does not always appear, but sometimes a PolicyKit alert
appears saying "System policy prevents installing the bootloader ...
Authentication as the super user is required to perform this action".

This is not about the alert appearing at all (bug 859539), it is about
the text. You should never say "System policy prevents" something in an
alert that exists solely to let you do that thing. And you should never
say "Authentication as the super user is required" on an operating
system that doesn't have a super user.
