2012-08-25 22:07:38 Rocko description gnome-system-log runs fine from the command line in Quantal, but nothing happens if you click on the gnome-system-log icon in the launcher or in the dash. The desktop file has 'Exec=pkexec gnome-system-log', and removing pkexec makes it run again from dash/launcher. (However, gparted has a similar line, and in its case pkexec correctly asks for authentication.) But should gnome-system-log even need sudo privileges? I seem to recall a similar problem with gnome-system-log happening in Precise until pkexec was removed from the command line. gnome-system-log runs fine from the command line in Quantal, but nothing happens if you click on the gnome-system-log icon in the launcher or in the dash.
