--- Comment #3 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
I figured out what's going on here: changing the timezone requires poking two
systemd services:
- org.freedesktop.timedate1.set-ntp
- org.freedesktop.timedate1.set-timezone
Both require authentication, so you're asked twice. The only practical way to
improve this is to ask distros to ship polkit rules that suppress one or both
of these by allowing them to proceed without authentication. I've written about
this in
https://community.kde.org/Distributions/Packaging_Recommendations#Polkit_configuration
and notified distros about it.
