Description of problem: Smart package manager needs to call root authorization. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Call Smart from menu. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. I can call the Smart package manager from the command line after "su -" but from the menu, just nothing happens. It should ask for authorization, like rpmdrake. Why Smart? Because I want to be able to use my computer SOME of the time, instead of waiting while rpmdrake runs around in circles for 20 minutes to get a list. The command-line urpmi is good, but sometimes I get the package name wrong. You won't sell Mageia on a good command line. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:

Smart is dropped from distribution due to broken urpmi backend and unmaintained. Note that Fedora dropped it two years ago. See: https://ml.mageia.org/l/arc/dev/2015-05/msg00117.html
