Due to a bug in dbus-glib-0.82 (fdo #23297), PolicyKit-gnome
would fail all authorization checks. However, PK-gnome was using
and outdated method for talking to PolicyKit. This update moves
PK-gnome over to the preferred method (which has shipped in PolicyKit
for over a year) and thus avoids the problem. Without this update,
programs like nm-connection-editor and polkit-gnome-authorization
may fail to allow any privileged operations.
Comment (by jkeating):
Please hold on tagging this, as I believe we already have the golden
package set for the F12 Alpha release candidate.
