Bug ID: 442345
Summary: Feature request: handle authentication failure
Product: partitionmanager
Version: 21.08.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: andr...@stikonas.eu
Reporter: au...@gangsto.cz
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Sometimes I accidentally open the partition manager, and noticed I have to
authenticate with my super long password to be able to close it again.
Would be really nice to be able to cancel authentication without typing the
password so i can quickly close it and get on with what I was doing.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open partitionmanager and wait for polkit authentication
2. Press cancel instead of authenticating
3. Repeat step 2
OBSERVED RESULT
Pressing cancel will repeat the authentication attempt seemingly forever
EXPECTED RESULT
Pressing cancel would either show the UI read/only or just pop up a dialog
saying something along the lines of "you have to authenticate to use this
program, press cancel again to exit"
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
