For the KDE systems, none of them have pulseaudio enabled, and none of them
have the polkitd memory leak problem.
The GNOME system has pulseaudio enabled and installed, and it suffers from this
memory leak.
Looks like pulseaudio may be the culprit (again...) for this issue.
But then here's what is odd. On my Xfce system, pulseaudio is disabled, and
it's not even installed. The only pulse packages I have are:
libpulse0-32bit-0.9.21-10.1.1.x86_64
libpulse-mainloop-glib0-0.9.21-10.1.1.x86_64
libpulse0-0.9.21-10.1.1.x86_64
I just have to say it. I, and people I've installed Linux for, have had way too
many problems with pulseaudio. This is why I'm starting to ditch GNOME in favor
of KDE. At least with KDE, you can have pulseaudio completely disabled, but not
lose your shortcut keys, your volume controls, or your audio settings. Sorry to
hear about your issue, Hans-Robert.
But back to the bug. Hope there's a way to plug the memory leak without
resorting to disabling pulseaudio or removing it from a GNOME setup.
