After racking my brains thinking this had to do with deb822, I found
that a Dbus exception was being suppressed by only logging one
particular exception. Disabling the catch with
--->
def on_remove_clicked(self, widget):
"""Remove the selected source"""
model = self.treeview_sources.get_model()
(path, column) = self.treeview_sources.get_cursor()
iter = model.get_iter(path)
if iter:
source_entry = model.get_value(iter, LIST_ENTRY_OBJ)
#try:
self.backend.RemoveSource(str(source_entry))
#except dbus.DBusException as e:
# maybe_log_authentication_canceled_error(e)

reveals the issue:
