Details

Description:I recently updated my system with Pacman -Syu and it updated alot of packages....I believe the root of the issue is with polkit.

When I start Apper normnally (type apper in terminal just to see errors in background) it states the following:

"
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
"

when I select "Updates>>check for updates" a dialog box appears stating: "failed to obtain authentication"

and the terminal states:
"
enumFromString ( Role ) : converted "unknown" to "UnknownRole" , enum id 0
"

If I run as sudo Apper everything runs fine....this just started happening about 2 weeks ago.

Additional info:
* package version(s): apper-0.7.2-5-x86_64
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
Install Apper, run via terminal, click updates, select check for updates.
This task depends upon

I cannot reproduce the problem to state with a line a saw lately: "It works on my machine!"
