Description Martin Rotter 2014-10-21 05:09:55 UTC
Systemsettings5 behaves weird when trying to change active timezone. The bug seems to be related more to polkit componenet, but I am not sure. It seems that this kind of bug affects more components of my KDE 5 install.

I will provide screenshots later today.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open systemsettings5.
2. Change timezone.
3. Hit "Apply".

Actual Results:  
I select new timezone, hit "Apply" button. Then one-two seconds, nothing happens, then new "crash/debug" window appears, saying that "polkit-1" has crashed.

Expected Results:  
When I change "Apply" button with newly selected timezone, it is expected that "polkit" dialog asking for password comes out, I type in my root password, confirm and timezone gets changed.

Archlinux, all KDE-related packages up to date. I can provide a list. I will rebuild packages with "Debug" flag to provide meaningful traces.

This bug does not occur in VirtualBox - clean KDE 5 installation.
