Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: policykit-1-gnome
Sometimes when I try to authenticate -- for example, this just happened
to me when trying to unlock the Login Screen configuration -- after I
type my password and hit ENTER, the password box disappears and nothing
else happens.
After that point, clicking "Authenticate" does nothing. Clicking
"Cancel" does nothing. The window does still respond to input in
general, as I can switch the user, or expand or collapse the details.
Oddly enough, if I click the window close button, I end up back in the
screen I was trying to unlock, and it's successfully unlocked.
This doesn't happen every time, but by now it has happened to me more
than once.
A screenshot is attached, showing the state of the window after I have
typed my password and hit ENTER.
