If you want to skip GUI navigation to the Actions Policy kcm module, you can enter in terminal: kcmshell4 kcm_polkitactions or dbus-launch kcmshell4 kcm_polkitactions Tried as both normal user and root. It doesn't change the situation, the changes I made did not get applied and written. I think this bug is the same. I checked other users, the Actions Policy module is entirely useless and confusing in its current state. It gives a hard time for new users to realize what the module is intended to do, because it just doesn't work. Users tend to think they're doing something wrong, because the changes have no effect. I guess this bug describes the same thing (although it may look like a specific one because it talks about a certain policy) but in reality it applies to everything in Actions Policy, i.e. no settings can be saved at all: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=266467 Please test and confirm. openSUSE 12.1, polkit-kde-agent-1-0.99.0-10.3.1 polkit-kde-kcmmodules-1-0.98.1+git20110929-3.1 polkit-qt-1-0.99.1-16.3.1 polkit-0.102-22.1 I can't confirm this. I can modify implicit permissions and they take effect, confirmed with pkaction. I can add explicit permissions to a permission and they are visible upon restarting the module. Duh, I am using the fixes mentioned in 266467. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 266467 *** |
