CC'ing isodumper maintainers and MATE maintainer. There's likely an issue with polkit under MATE.

Hi Ben,
Can you try by launching isodumper from console as USER too.
You should get the ask for password. It is intersting to see what it happens after.

bother.

after power-down overnight and reboot, isodumper is now working correctly.

I will check other single DE installs , and if no further issues, will close this report
