Details

Description:In Arch 64 only, when you try to run any of the Gnome-System-Tools such as time-admin, system-tools-backends cannot verify the root password. When time-admin is run in a Terminal window, it yields the following error:

(time-admin:19569): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.

[1]+ Done time-admin

Downgrading to system-tools-backends 1.4.2-2 fixes the problem.

This is Arch 64 related only, this problem does not exist on my two Arch i686 systems.


Additional info:
* package version(s) system-tools-backends 2.4.1-6 systems-tools-backends 1.4.2-2 gnome-system-tools 2.14.0-3
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
Try running any of the gnome-system-tools in a fully updated Arch 64
This task depends upon

Use gnome-system-tools packages from community - they are updated and all patches sent upstream.
Packages from Unstable will be removed soon.
