OK, so that's just the result of a limitation in ConsoleKit. This is a major problem, but that's more a feature request than a bug.
If you want, please open a report against the consolekit package - but I don't think that will really help improve things, sadly. I'm closing this bug because there has been much noise when trying to debug. Opening a clear report with the request in the description will be better for everybody. ** Changed in: policykit-1 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- PolicyKit authentication always fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
