I hadn't noticed that, Chris Coulsen. You're right, it's not installed by default from a Ubuntu CD.
The following includes my comments: $ apt-cache rdepends policykit-gnome policykit-gnome Reverse Depends: xubuntu-desktop # depends, in universe gnome-mount # depends, in universe gnome-lirc-properties # depends, in universe policykit # suggests, in main I installed all of those packages and ran polkit-gnome-authorization, and I only got five configurable settings: one under org.gnome.lirc- properties.mechanism and four under org.freedesktop.policykit. To me, this means that polkit-gnome-authorization is practically useless and should be hidden. Users of Xubuntu at least will appreciate it. -- Authorizations is old and should be hidden https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/530829 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
