Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 1.0.6-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When running nm-connection-editor (that can be also launched by
right-clicking on the nm-applet icon and choosing "Edit Connections"),
I am unable to edit or delete existing connections (the buttons are
grayed out). I am running XFCE. My user does belong to the netdev
group. The configuration of NetworkManager is pristine.
Workaround: I found that the problem is solved by editing
/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.pkla
such that it reads:
[Adding or changing system-wide NetworkManager connections]
Identity=unix-group:netdev;unix-group:sudo
Action=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.settings.modify.system
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=yes
ResultActive=yes
Specifically, I had to change ResultInactive to yes. (I checked that
changing only ResultAny to yes is not sufficient.)
I have no clue about policykit, so I cannot say whether this is a
problem in network-manager-gnome or in some other package. Please
reassign this bug as necessary.
Thanks,
Christoph

It's most likely a PolicyKit/systemd-shim related problem related
centered around the fact that you use sysvinit.
I no longer use sysvinit, so I can't reasonably test this.
In any case, not a bug in nm-applet itself. Thus closing.
