[Bug 1202126] New: GParted doesn't work because pkexec doesn't exist
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1202126 Bug ID: 1202126 Summary: GParted doesn't work because pkexec doesn't exist Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: MicroOS Assignee: kubic-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: khanich.opensource@gmx.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- So, as it turns out, since pkexec was split out of the polkit package, some software like GParted breaks, because they don't depend on it. It is not the only one, but a more major one since it doesn't even start without it. Grsync for example can't run as the super user (a setting under advanced) either. Installing the pkexec package helped in both cases tho. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

all supported MicroOS system roles have pkexec if they need it
I tested if it's missing by installing MicroOS (choosing the Gnome Desktop role in the installer), after logging in doing "sudo transactional-update pkg in gparted", then rebooted. pkexec was not installed. So, if you mean with "supported system roles" all which are not RC (or ealier) then this is the case. If you mean "all roles selectable in the installer", then no. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
