Package: lxsession
Version: 0.4.6.1-4
Severity: important
Tags: patch
By default polkit forces you to confirm shutdowns or reboots in case other
users are logged in. This is authentication dialog is initiated by
lxsession-logout via dbus. The timeout for _all_ dbus replies is 2000ms as
set in lxsession-logout/dbus-interface.c
That may be fine for non-interactive requests (do we support suspend?, etc).
If the request pops up a window for the user to select an account and enter
the valid password 2000ms is too short.
The obvious simple fix is to extend the timeout to 60s (long enough for me).
Patch for that is below.
Rated important as it takes away the option to cleanly shutdown the machine
from inexperienced users (read: my parents).
Regards,
Tobias
