What's the replacement for at_console="true"? I still see that in the NetworkManager dbus policy file. NetworkManager killed at_console: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=979416 http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?id=7e0f94f0f5a40cda3ab012069f98fafb77ddfd6d They also fixed other polkit policy issues that affected non-console users. To sumararize, most DBus services shouldn't care if the caller is in a session owned by a console user or not. But for those who do care about consoles, they use the appropriate polkit <defaults><allow_active>... tags. See: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/polkit/docs/latest/polkit.8.html or man polkit Thanks. Based on the current default D-Bus policy file for wicd, I'm curious if just removing the at_console block is sufficient. It seems redundant anyway based on the docs I just read, so removing should work, yes? Let's try a test build. wicd-1.7.2.4-10.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/wicd-1.7.2.4-10.fc20 wicd-1.7.2.4-11.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/wicd-1.7.2.4-11.fc20 Package wicd-1.7.2.4-11.fc20: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 20 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days.

Yes, that seems right. wicd-1.7.2.4-11.fc20 has been pushed to the Fedora 20 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
