In case of apper, I get a list of updates, but the installation is refused with a remark of insuffient rights. The network applet claims that the network manager is not running, although the latter is well running. I figured out that the problems are caused by console kit reporting (via ck-list-sessions)) that my session is not-local and not active. The error shows same symptoms as bug 790222. Since I needed my system back working quickly, I made a clean install instead of the previous upgrade and everything worked. I then realized that the console-kit is not used any more by default. I don't know why it was used on my 12.2 system (which -I think- was already an upgrade from 12.1), but it worked fine before. => the upgrade should check and eventually de-install console-kit (or properly reconfigure it) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade from 12.2 with user console kit for session authorization 2. try to user-defined open a network connection 3. Actual Results: claims network manager not running Expected Results: working connection (or at least a suitable error message indicating that insufficient rights cause this claim). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
