This is still broken for me on a fresh install today, with gnome-
control-center 1:3.4.0-0ubuntu5.
I believe the problem may lie here:
struct group *admin;
struct group *sudo;
admin = getgrnam ("admin");
if (admin == NULL)
return FALSE;
sudo = getgrnam ("sudo");
if (sudo == NULL)
return FALSE;
---------
Since the 'admin' group doesn't exist on my system, the function returns false
immediately, short-circuiting the possibility of checking for the sudo group.
The attached patch to cc-network-panel.c seems to have done the trick on
my system, but presumably you'll have to merge that into the debian
patch directory.
** Patch added: "is_admin() should return true for sudo OR admin group"
