Description Dr. David Alan Gilbert 2018-05-23 12:14:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
With pam-kwallet 5.12.5-3 logging into my xfce setting via lightdm gives an error dialog 'XFCE PolicyKit Agent'  and a lot of stuff gets permission errors (audio? usb device mounts?).   Reverting to 5.12.4-3 or removing pam-kwallet works fine.
I'd heard it said switching to gdm from lightdm works around this - but certainly downgrading to 5.12.4-3 or removing pam-kwallet fixes it for me;  I found this by looking through the yum history  of the update   that I did before my reboot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.12.5-3

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to an xfce session through lightdm
2.
3.

Actual results:
A long pause, followed by a dialog 'XFCE PolicyKit Agent'; then lots of random permission stuff doesn't work (udisks, pulse, probably others)

Expected results:
A happy login session

Additional info:
I've run KDE in the past and have some KDE apps installed, so that's probably why I've got pam-kwallet in the first place.
