Subject: [bug#47870] [PATCH 0/2] Autostart polkit-gnome in XFCE
Date: Sun, 18 Apr 2021 15:13:51 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <35342344.77101.1618751631600@office.mailbox.org> (raw)

I noticed I couldn't edit NetworkManager settings in XFCE, and it turns it
there is no polkit authentication agent running. Every desktop seems to
have their own one, and XFCE seems to use polkit-gnome. Since it was 
abandoned by GNOME it isn't used for anything else. So I setup an autostart
desktop file just like how mate-polkit has one.
It feels a bit odd configuring the package with an embedded desktop file
just for XFCE. Perhaps it would be better to put it in a separate "xfce-autostart"
output or just put it into the xfce package instead of the polkit-gnome package.

What do you think?
