Public bug reported:
Open nautilus.
click on Other Locations
click on Computer, then root
password prompt window opens, I type in my password.
Error message windows pops up:
Oops! Something went wrong.
Unhandled error message:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed:Unix
process subject does not have uid set
Not only is this cryptic, it doesn't help me understand what went wrong.
I should be able to navigate and handle file management in /root with sudo
privileges via Nautilus.
