As described in bug 1125314 we want to remove polkit rules files that grant members of the wheel group special privileges. fwupd ships one such rules file in /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/org.freedesktop.fwupd.rules. This file is currently not effective anyways, because the polkit-default-privs take precendence over it. I suggest to move this file to /usr/share/doc/... as an example for users that want to manually enable this rule on their system.
