Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2017-04-30 16:20:06 MSK

I've installed education-20170331 build from the LiveCD. In the installed system, xfce-polkit was missing.

I couldn't make a network connection available for all users through editing through the Network Manager applet. (This change was not saved.)

Then I installed xfce-polkit-0.2-alt1 .

On the next login, I was able to successfully make this change to the network connection through the applet (after entering my password).

The reason might the change in xfce4.git which has left xfce-polkit only in xfce4-full, but not in xfce4-regular:

    4.12-alt5

    - NMU: rework full/regular metapackages so that -regular one
      is suitable for sysvinit-based systems again (xfce-polkit
      fails to start properly there at the moment)

Might be the time to revert that change; care to?
