Bug ID: 449385
Summary: Systemsettings can't save changes for user
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.23.5
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

SUMMARY
I am trying to change my avatar or email address in systemsettings --> users.
For my avatar picture, I've tried a picture from my phone (.jpg) and also the
standard avatars that are available. When I click apply the message "Could not
get permission to save user xxx". I think this is the same message that
appears, when I click cancel in the PolicyKit1 window, but the window doesn't
open. When I try to change my sddm theme in systemsettings --> Startup and
Shutdown --> Login Screen (SDDM) the PolicyKit1 window does show up and I can
enter my password and everything just works fine.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open systemsettings --> users
2. Select different avatar or enter an email adrees
3. Click apply
OBSERVED RESULT
Error message "Could not get permission to save user xxx".
EXPECTED RESULT
PolicyKit1 window opens, I insert my password, no error message and avatar or
email are set.
