Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

If, in the clock applet dropdown, the user clicks “Set” on a time-zone different than the system one, it will prompt for authorization to change the system timezone.

However, If the user then clicks “Cancel”, it produces the error “Failed to set the system timezone: Not Authorized for action org.gnome.clockapplet.mechanism.settimezone” It should not display an error dialog when the user cancels the action.
