Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
When I click the Add button in User Settings, nothing happens, I'm not even presented with an authorization dialog. The only error indication I can find is that on starting, the application outputs the following string to stderr:
(users-admin:2641): Liboobs-WARNING **: There was an unknown error communicating asynchronously with the backends: Malformed message was sent
I can't perform any other actions either, such as deleting users or administer groups.

On the same system, privilege escalation works fine in Update Manager.
