Bug#726407: gnome-control-center-data: Cannot authenticate to change the date/time configuration

[Laurent Bigonville]

retitle 726407 gnome-control-center-data: .pkla file out-of-date compared to upstream .rules file
clone 726407 -1
reassign -1 dbus 1.6.16-1
retitle -1 dbus: dbus enforce selinux even if selinux itself is in permissive mode
user selinux-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
usertag -1 + selinux-aware
thanks

Hi,

So this issue seems to be selinux related, looking in the session.log
file it seems that dbus is enforcing selinux even in selinux itself is
in permissive mode:

Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: An SELinux policy prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, 0 matched rules; type="method_call", sender="(null)" (inactive) interface="org.freedesktop.DBus" member="Hello" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="org.freedesktop.DBus" (bus)

(gnome-control-center:4683): Gtk-WARNING **: Error acquiring permission: User dismissed authentication dialog while trying to acquire permission for action-id org.gnome.controlcenter.datetime.configure

Disabling selinux completely fix this issue.

I'm cloning this bug and reassign it to dbus

Cheers
