Description Marc Deslauriers 2012-02-11 05:12:28 UTC 
policykit-gnome is attempting to load the user face icon from ~/.face. This is no longer the right location, it should be asking accountsservice for this information.

This results in not having the user face icon show up in the authentication dialog when there is more than 1 admin user.

Comment 2 André Klapper 2019-02-23 02:44:52 UTC 
policykit-gnome is not under active development anymore.
Its codebase has been archived:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/policykit-gnome/commits/master

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather reactivate the project
to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the
responsibility for active development again.
