Description Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 04:13:00 UTC

Description of problem:

usermode/consolehelper is deprecated since Fedora has a better framework now
called PolicyKit. Please switch to using that instead

Comment 1 Jeroen van Meeuwen 2009-05-31 10:53:52 UTC

There does not seem to be an easy fix here.

Can't really afford to spend time on PolicyKit integration, but patches are happily accepted. For now, consolehelper does the job.
