Hi Todd,

CC'ing Sebastien, our GNOME master, keeping patch attached for him.

This works:

POLKIT_AUTH_FORCE_TEXT=1 polkit-auth  --obtain 
org.freedesktop.systemtoolsbackends.set

(You probably don't need the POLKIT_AUTH_FORCE_TEXT if you don't have
X running). However, it's not terribly convenient indeed.

OK, that sounds reasonable, as long as it does not change the
behaviour in Ubuntu itself.

Can you please open a bug report about this, so that we can track it
for a stable release update? Please see the policy [1] for the
details. I can help you with getting it uploaded and processed.

| -Categories=GNOME;GTK;System;Settings;
| +Categories=GNOME;GTK;Settings;System;

Does that actually make a difference? If so, I guess it would move the
menu entry into a different menu, which we don't want to do (even less
so in stables).

| +OnlyShowIn=GNOME;Mobile

That looks like the relevant change here? Show time-admin in mobile,
too?

Thanks,

Martin
