Description David Le Sage 2011-03-03 06:19:52 UTC

Description of problem:
If I click on the desktop clock, go to the Time and Date Settings and unlock these, should they stay unlocked until I explicitly click "Lock" again?  Currently, if I close that window and then go back into it in the same user session, it is locked and I have to input my root password again, despite not having explicitly clicked "Lock."  

I am not sure what the intended behaviour should be so I though I should raise this to your attention.  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-2.91.90-2.fc15.x86_64


How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on the Desktop Clock.
2. Click on Time and Date Settings.
3. Click on Unlock.
4, Input root password and click Authenticate.
5. Close the window without explicitly clicking Lock again.
6. Click on the Desktop Clock.
7. Click on Time and Date Settings.
  
Actual results:
The settings have locked again automatically.

Expected results:
Unsure.  Since I did not explicitly click "Lock" to relock it, it might be reasonably assumed the function is still unlocked.  Not sure what user expectations would be.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 15:42:00 UTC

This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
