[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#741096: network-manager: No D-Bus objects exposed to non-privileged user

[Tobias Bengfort]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.4.0-10
Severity: important

Hi,

since I switched to 64-bit I was not able to start nm-applet. Digging
further into the problem revealed that no D-Bus objects were exposed to
my non-privileged user:

    $ mdbus2 --system org.freedesktop.NetworkManager
    /

    $ pkexec mdbus2 --system org.freedesktop.NetworkManager
    /
    /org
    /org/freedesktop
    /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager
    …

I did not mess with any polkit settings. I did also not experience any
D-Bus/polkit issues with any other programs.

Please tell me which additional information I should provide.
