Title:
Update to 0.17 disables hibernate for ordinary user
Status in policykit-desktop-privileges package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After updating to 0.17 I receive
"GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed: Operation not
supported"
when trying to hibernate from the desktop UI. Instead, the screensaver
is launched.
I have mitigated this by following a procedure
https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/other/enabling-suspend-on-linux-
lite/ to add site-local rules which override the
/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla
file. This file /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu
.enable-hibernate.pkla contains:
[Re-enable hibernate by default in upower]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
ResultActive=yes
[Re-enable hibernate by default in logind]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate
ResultActive=yes
Disabling part of the UI doesn't seem the right thing.
