Description Dan Simmons 2018-11-10 18:56:20 UTC

Description of problem:
Selecting the firewall menu item in Preferences results in an error Authorization Failed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.6.2-1.fc29

How reproducible:
Select the Firewall menu item in Preferences

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Click "f" to open menu
2.select Preferences
3.select firewall

Actual results:
Error Authorization Failed

Expected results:
Elevated authorization prompt --> ability to manage the firewall config.

Additional info:
Adding the following to the firewall-config.desktop file in /usr/share/applications/ serves as a workaround if not fix:
change "Exec=/usr/bin/firewall-config" 
to  "Exec=lxqt-sudo /usr/bin/firewall-config"

Comment 1 Raphael Groner 2018-11-10 19:13:09 UTC

Thanks for the report.

The LXQt SIG can't modify firewall-config.desktop because it's part of firewalld, a general system package. First, we need to know if the maintainers of firewalld (or system-config-firewalld as an alternative) can support LXQt with its menu, maybe it's just a missing if statement or the like in the start script. 
Reassigning.

Comment 2 Zamir SUN 2018-11-26 08:50:13 UTC

Actually this is caused by lxqt-policykit. A fix is coming soon.
