Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
choose the users and groups administration tool from the settings.
click unlock. An authenticate window will come up.
Don't type anything, just wait a few seconds. (About 8 seconds for me. If you type your password fast, the bug won't happen.)
An error message window will appear under the authenticate window: "Could not authenticate, An unexpected error has occurred."
The program now will not work properly (won't authenticate any user, so far as I can tell), unless you shut it down and try again.
---
If you then do finish entering your password in the authenticate window, and close the error dialog, the program will not have authenticated you. Now clicking the unlock button anew just puts up the "Could not authenticate" dialog straight away, without running an authenticate window. You have to shut the program down and try it again.
To get it to work, try running it again and just type your password fast.
