[Bug 1411895] Re: Unable to start polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
I filed this bug because I have tried all known workarounds, but failed
to resolve the problem:
- appended to /etc/pam.d/lightdm
session required pam_loginuid.so
session required pam_systemd.so
- ran 'sudo pam-auth-update --force'
- reinstalled policykit-1 and libpam packages
- reinstalled 'sudo' package
- removed Skype
