[Rikard Söderström <soderstrom.rikard@xxxxxxxxx>]

For me the issue about getting duplicate names in the output was due to
the fact that my user was in both the "admin" and "sudo" group. Seems
like polkit first lists all user from the sudo group, then all users
from the admin group;  not checking if the same user was listed twice.

so after a quick
sudo gpasswd -d $USER admin

The duplicate no longer appear.

Hope this information is helpful.

Title:
  lists users multiple time when requiring user authentication

Status in policykit-1 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  To reproduce

  systemctl restart <some unit>

  ==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units ===
  Authentication is required to manage system services or units.
  Multiple identities can be used for authentication:
   1.  Sergio Callegari (callegar)
   2.  Sergio Callegari (callegar)
  Choose identity to authenticate as (1-2):

  Why is the same identity seen as two different identities?
