Yes:

qaa:~> sysprof-cli -- echo
Recording, press ^C to exit
Failed to complete recording: Failed to authorize user credentials

Note that I am not using GNOME. I was just told to test some software
with sysprof-cli in the context of a bug report (the bug has eventually
been identified and fixed, but I'm still wondering why I get this
sysprof error).
