** Description changed: - After a new install of 64 bit Ubuntu 13.10 on my second partition, I - used dpkg to reinstall all the same packages I had on my 32 bit 13.04 - partition. I copied all my home directory files over and updated all - the packages. I now find that I don't have permissions to change the - network settings; I can't mount my other hard drive or any USB stick - using nautilus, or (udisks without using sudo)' I can't run synaptic by - clicking on the GUI (I have to go to a terminal and sudo synaptic); etc. - I can't find any documentation on the configuration of policykit- - desktop-privileges, so I'm filing this bug. For me it appears to be - totally broken. Maybe someone can help me out. + HOW TO REPRODUCE: + - Upgrade Ubuntu to the next release. - Thanks, - - Rob + RESULT: + - The user looses permissions for several basic actions in the system.
