Dialog executes primary action when the agent is called from terminal

Open arshubham opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

This only happens sometime. This happens when a app requests root from the terminal on launch. Steps:

  1. run snap refresh (more possibility of reproducing it when using tab completion)
  2. Primary action is executed and Authentication failed message is shown.

Affects Juno beta 1

It looks like this happens when triggering polkit in other apps as well. For more information, take a look at the behavior we've found in switchboard-plug-locale: https://github.com/elementary/switchboard-plug-locale/pull/96
