Hello,

After an upgrade, I cannot add/remove/edit any network connection from NetworkManager.
In logs I found the following entries, but cannot really find a solution yet:

Code:
Dec 15 09:18:26 NoteBelliash NetworkManager[3041]: <info>  [1544861906.0379] audit: op="statistics" arg="refresh-rate-ms" pid=3699 uid=X result="fail" reason="Not authorized to perform this operation"
Dec 15 09:18:35 NoteBelliash NetworkManager[3041]: <info>  [1544861915.6041] audit: op="statistics" arg="refresh-rate-ms" pid=3699 uid=X result="fail" reason="Not authorized to perform this operation"
Dec 15 09:18:51 NoteBelliash NetworkManager[3041]: <info>  [1544861931.5751] audit: op="connection-add" pid=5221 uid=X result="fail" reason="Insufficient privileges."



Anyone came across such problem?

The answer is, you have to downgrade policykit.

Is this some known bug?

Hmmm,

Downgraded sys-auth/polkit and everything works fine now.
