Description Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 04:45:37 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 John Poelstra 2009-06-08 20:18:41 UTC 
Added 'FutureFeature' keyword to avoid rawhide base
Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2011-03-11 18:08:42 UTC 
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Comment 4 Clark Williams 2013-10-23 20:53:35 UTC 
I don't think we should take on a rewrite of the security code at this point.
