Hello,
gnome-packagekit misses a dependecy on a Policykit authentication agent. Rather than adding a dependency on polkit-gnome, would it make sense for all three Policykit authentication agent implementations (polkit-gnome, polkit-kde-1, lxpolkit) to provide something like polkit-agent which dependent packages could require instead?
Technically speaking, gnome-packagekit doesn't depend on a polkit auth agent. That's really PackageKit itself. You can call PackageKit methods that will require such authentication from any app, or even from the command line. Also, I'm unsure we want all services providing polkit methods to require an auth agent; we certainly will forget about some cases. I'd argue the auth agent should be provided by the desktop and therefore, the issue is a missing dependency somewhere else. Which desktop were you using?
