Another thing to try: Replace

   pkill --signal HUP polkitd

with

   systemctl try-restart polkitd.service

in /usr/lib/udisks2/udisks2-inhibit. That will immediately restart it,
instead of waiting for another d-bus activation cycle (which might
confuse existing clients).

** Package changed: policykit-1 (Ubuntu) => udisks2 (Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- crash during network setup in ubiquity wily
+ ubiquity and others time out on polkit (killed by udisks2-inhibit)

Title:
  ubiquity and others time out on polkit (killed by udisks2-inhibit)

Status in udisks2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  on wily release candidates I get a crash when it switches to the
  network setup page

  this doesn't happen with "try ubuntu" mode which runs as root only
  when launching ubiquity from the desktop

  the backtrace points to an authentication issue

  I get a related backtrace even if I'm connected to a network from the
  panel network-manager
