Long summary: Polkit-1 basically does not work anywhere else except for development versions of distributions. There does not seem to be any porting documentation. Upstream (KDE) has no support for it at all because of these. Fedora itself has no KDE support for it (there is a patch, but it has issues and is most probably unfeasible). Fedora has decided to drop PolicyKit support from KDE for next Fedora release and will use the GNOME PolicyKit authentication agent in the KDE session (unlike us Fedora's KDE actually does not have basic functionality depending on PolicyKit). So basically the two feasible options for us seem to be either doing that as well (ugh) or going back to PackageKit version that does not require Polkit-1. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Maybe it's just a plain gtk app. That could be used in KDE without disadvantages. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

GNOME application on KDE 2. Unmaintained packagekit snapshot 3. Unmaintained updater backend Taking these 3 options I would go for 1. Vincent's suggestion on the conference was taking the gnome version and ripping off all GNOME UI dependencies, but in the end polkit-gnome has no dependencies beside the -lang subpackage that aren't yet on the KDE Livecd: 388Kb (including -lang). Unfortunately the test updates can still not be installed on current live cds with polkit-gnome installed, but I guess that's something we can fix for m8. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Vincent: SR#21219 - please review, accept and forward to o:F.

Can't find you on IRC, so let me comment here: + please use the patch naming and tagging policy (see http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/Patches) + why is fix_status_icon_hide.diff necessary? What's happening at the moment? + did you send alternative_button_order.diff upstream? + I agree with Ludwig about OnlyShowIn, so use_in_kde.diff needs to be changed to simply comment out the OnlyShowIn line. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

+ why is fix_status_icon_hide.diff necessary? What's happening at the moment?
The "Click the icon to drop all elevated privileges" systray icon does not go away when clicked, the icon itself is no longer visible, but the space is still taken. Possibly a GtkStatusIcon bug, I don't know.
+ did you send alternative_button_order.diff upstream?
No. I want to avoid the possibility of mentioning by the way what I think about certain aspects of PolicyKit. The patch shouldn't matter much post-11.2 anyway, hopefully some poor soul will figure out the KDE agent even with the useless documentation.
