Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

Clicking the unlock button to change the timezone does nothing. If run from terminal, the time-admin reports the following to the command line when the button is clicked:

(time-admin:2904): polkitgtk-WARNING **: Error obtaining authorization for action id `org.freedesktop.systemtoolsbackends.set': GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.NotAuthorized: Only trusted callers (e.g. uid 0) can use CheckAuthorization() and pass details
