[Bug 210897] [NEW] sudo *something which uses policykit?* doesn't work

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug by a7x (a7x):

Binary package hint: policykit

I have added myself to the "sudo" group, and removed myself from the "admin" group for being able to use sudo without needing to fill in my password...
Every CLI applications works, but not the GUIs which is using policykit (those with the "Unlock" button)

If I start for example the "network-admin" program and press "Unlock", the program freezes a minute and then displays an error message.
And if I start something as root (sudo network-admin), I doesn't have the "Unlock" button at all. And I can't change anything either. As root, I should ;-)

I'm using Hardy, updated 5 minutes ago.
