Bug#1016785: Can't change user password on a "System Settings" (polkit dialog doesn't appear)
Package: systemsettings
Version: 4:5.25.4-1
Severity: normal
I'm unable to change password on "System Settings > Users" because dialog which asks elevated rights (sudo/root password) doesn't appear
How to reproduce:
1) Go to System Settings > Users
2) Click "Change password" and enter new password
What should happen:
1) After click on button "Set Password" user is asked for administrator password
2) User is notified that it's better to change Kwaller password as well
What currently happens:
1) Dialog closes
2) No warning about KWallet
3) Password doesn't change
If I launch systemsettings with elevated rights
Like
pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY KDE_SESSION_VERSION=5 KDE_FULL_SESSION=true systemsettings5 kcm_users
or
sudo systemsettings5 kcm_users
Password changes but KWallet warning doesn't appear
I tested other Debian-based distros:
- Kubuntu 22.04 - broken
- Kubuntu 22.10/kinetic daily build (2022-08-06) - broken
- Debian Testing (weekly build from 2022-08-01) - broken
- KDE Neon (build from 2022-08-04, based on Ubuntu 20.04) - dialog appears
- Debian 11.4 - dialog appears. Debian 11 with latest KDE packages (Norbert Preining backports) - still works
