I'm still working on updating the 11.3 docs. Now I'm wondering about the Gnome PolicyKit implementation. There are at least two packages: polkit-gnome and PolicyKit-gnome. polkit-gnome seems to be a library or something similar. PolicyKit-gnome come with /usr/bin/polkit-gnome-authorization that you can call.

Confusingly enough, it is very different from the KDE config offerings that you can see with "systemsettings" > "Advanced" > "System policies". Why are these config option not visible in the Gnome tool?

Gah. Karl sent me this mail privately too because it wasn't reaching the mailing list, and I replied privately already... Short summary: - PolicyKit-gnome is just there for compatibility with old PolicyKit - right thing is polkit-gnome - polkit-gnome-authorization should not have been shipped by default (fixed in Factory) - I have no idea about the KDE tool - sysadmins should mostly care about polkit-default-privs Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
