Application: systemsettings (1.0) KDE Version: 4.3.75 (KDE 4.3.75 (KDE 4.4 >= 20091113)) (Compiled from sources) Qt Version: 4.6.0 Operating System: Linux 2.6.31-14-generic x86_64 Distribution: Ubuntu 9.10 What I was doing when the application crashed: Whenever I try to open Remote widgets' policies from System Settings, System Settings crashes with the attached backtrace. From the bugtrace I suppose it has something to do with KAuth / polkit-qt. However, when I open Login Manager (anothe module that needs auth), it loads without crashing but also in non-root mode without asking me for authentication. -- Backtrace: Application: Sistemske nastavitve (systemsettings), signal: Aborted [KCrash Handler] #5 0x00007f504ca654b5 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 #6 0x00007f504ca68f50 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 #7 0x00007f504ca9dc97 in ??

This looks related to bug 200953 or bug 208695 - Do you have PolicyKit installed ? Thanks
Installing PolicyKit solved the problem. I had libpolkit installed and polkit-qt compiled without errors so I thought this is enough. I believe it should have some way of telling me that PolicyKit is not installed. Thanks for the resolution :)
Thanks *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 200953 ***
