Title:
  gnome-system-log fails to run from dash or launcher

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  gnome-system-log runs fine from the command line in Quantal, but
  nothing happens if you click on the gnome-system-log icon in the
  launcher or in the dash.

  The desktop file has 'Exec=pkexec gnome-system-log', and removing
  pkexec makes it run again from dash/launcher. (However, gparted has a
  similar line, and in its case pkexec correctly asks for
  authentication.)

  But should gnome-system-log even need sudo privileges? I seem to
  recall a similar problem with gnome-system-log happening in Precise
  until pkexec was removed from the command line.

  ubuntu 12.10
  gnome-system-log 3.5.90-0ubuntu2
  unity 6.2.0-0ubuntu3
