Description of problem: When I open gnome-abrt, I see that System tab has 2 reports. But I can't switch to it, when I click on it, nothing happens ("My" tab is still active). I can't even run gnome-abrt as root: $ sudo gnome-abrt No protocol specified Cannot connect to X server Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-abrt-0.3.0-3.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. run abrt-gnome 2. try to switch to System tab 3. nothing happens
abrt-cli works: $ sudo abrt-cli list @0 Directory: /var/tmp/abrt/Python-2013-08-30-16:01:32-29686 count: 3 executable: /bin/livecd-creator package: livecd-tools-20.0-1.fc20 time: Fri 30 Aug 2013 04:01:32 PM CEST uid: 0 @1 Directory: /var/tmp/abrt/Python-2013-08-22-14:20:08-23517 count: 3 executable: /bin/meld package: meld-1.7.3-1.fc19 time: Thu 22 Aug 2013 02:20:08 PM CEST uid: 0

Hmm, it works now. The polkit agent probably crashed or something, but I can't reproduce anymore. Next time this happens, I'll investigate what happened to polkit.
Oh by the way, "sudo gnome-abrt" now works too :-)
