Description Hernán Schmidt 2009-12-11 18:13:13 UTC 
Description of problem:
After I browse to a "folder" on the left frame, a list of keys appears on the right frame. When I right-click on any key, the program hangs for about a minute, and the following warnings appear on the console (see below). After these two warnings, the program returns to normal, but no context menu appears.

** (gconf-editor:2189): WARNING **: error calling CanSetSystem: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.


** (gconf-editor:2189): WARNING **: error calling CanSetMandatory: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

Comment 1 Hernán Schmidt 2009-12-11 18:33:24 UTC 
I was able to fix this problem by disabling SELinux.
Comment 2 Jean-Francois Saucier 2009-12-11 20:02:03 UTC 
I confirm this bug and that setting SELinux to permissive fix the problem.

What is weird is that I don't seem to have anything wrong in SELinux log about that.
Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2009-12-12 23:48:11 UTC 
This should be fixed in selinux-policy-3.6.32-57.fc12, which is currently in updates-testing.
