Description:

I’m not sure if I have to report it to you or to the Manjaro [1] packagers.

Entering three times a wrong password makes the dialog go away and eg KDE Systemsettings assumes changes were made and grays out the apply button.
-> Please see the upstream bug report [2]

Nate Graham from KDE answered to this:
> This is caused by using the pam_deny module which Arch now used by default. You’ll want to talk to the Arch packagers about it.

Is there anything you can do about it to solve the resulting issue?
