Public bug reported:
After upgrading to Ubuntu 17.10 (from 17.04), if I open the Software and
Updates app and attempt to change anything it does not popup the
authorization dialog and will not let changes through. In sylog I see
Nov 23 10:07:04 tigger gnome-shell[2142]: polkitAuthenticationAgent: Received 3
identities that can be used for authentication. Only considering one.
Nov 23 10:07:04 tigger gnome-shell[2142]: pushModal: invocation of begin_modal
failed
Nov 23 10:07:04 tigger gnome-shell[2142]: polkitAuthenticationAgent: Failed to

Nov 23 10:07:04 tigger software-properties-gnome.desktop[3367]:
ERROR:root:Authentication canceled, changes have not been saved
Before the upgrade it was ok.
Other apps that require authorisation function as expected.
