Error while checking updates with Apper
(In reply to Giulio 'juliuxpigface' from comment #0) > 2. I'm testing with qemu-kvm and I can download and install a more recent > compose (or update the system via dnf), if needed. Tonight I've applied the pending updates, including the brand new"kf5-plasma-5.19.0-2.fc24.x86_64". I can confirm the issue is still present. I've tested this with an up to date F24 qemu-kvm guest. I'm closing this bug report since I can't reproduce the issues anymore. |
Created attachment 1129924 [details] Error while mounting external drives Description of problem: I found 3 issue while testing the 20160223 compose of Fedora Rawhide (KDE): 1) I'm not able to mount external drives. I receive the message "Not authorized to perform operation". 2) I'm not able to check the updates via Apper. I receive the message "Failed to obtain the authentication" 3) I don't receive messages, but clicking on the "System" button on ABRT - in order to read about system's crashes - does nothing. I was suspecting that these issue are all caused by the lack of a polkit agent. But, according to "ps aux", "polkitd" and "polkit-authentication-agent-1" seems to be up and running. However, no popup window has pinged me for passwords nor authentication. I'm pretty sure all of the above issues share a common cause, but I'll file new bugs if needed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): polkit-kde-5.5.4-2.fc24.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch a Plasma session. 2. Try to mount an external drive. 3. Try to Check updates with Apper. 4. Try to read ABRT's system reports. Actual results: Steps 2, 3 and 4 fail because there isn't an easy way to input the user's credentials. Expected results: Users should be able to mount external drives, updates their system with Apper and use every feature of ABRT. When needed, a modal window should pop up in order to provide an obvious way to provide passwords nor login names. Additional info: 1. The user is not in the "wheel" group. 2. I'm testing with qemu-kvm and I can download and install a more recent compose (or update the system via dnf), if needed. 3. I'm attaching two screenshot in order to illustrate the issues.
