Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: policykit-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. run some tool which requires elevated privileges (and requests them through 
policykit) and make them request these privileges (4ex, run `aptdcon --install 
<some not installed package name>`)
2. authenticate successfully (enter password in window shown)

Expected behavior: policykit-agent's window which asks me for password
closes and operation which requests elevated privileges is executed

What actually happens: input box for password disappears, leaving only
window with «Authenticate» and «Cancel» buttons, nothing happens then

Note: after closing (former) password request window by clicking
"close", requested operation is executed successfully and indicator
"Elevated privileges" is shown in application indicators' area.

** Affects: policykit-1 (Ubuntu)
