policykit-1 124-2ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
policykit-1 (124-2ubuntu1) noble; urgency=medium
* Merge with Debian; remaining changes:
- polkitd.postinst: call systemd-sysusers with SYSTEMD_NSS_DYNAMIC_BYPASS=1
This works around an upgrade bug in systemd where nss-systemd cannot
establish a varlink connection with io.systemd.DynamicUser, hence causing
the polkitd user/group creation to fail.
policykit-1 (124-2) unstable; urgency=medium
[ Michael Biebl ]
* Drop obsolete lintian override
* Build-depend on pkgconf instead of pkg-config
[ Simon McVittie ]
* d/control: Change policykit-1 dependencies from "equal" to "at least"
Having transitional packages depend on package (>= x) instead
of package (= x) means that the transitional package can remain
installed on user systems even after it has been obsoleted and
removed, if it's required by third-party software.
* d/p/Turn-local-modifications-of-mocklibc-into-patches-and-app.patch:
Add patch to fix FTBFS caused by an implicit declaration.
Thanks to Michael Biebl (Closes: #1066531)
* d/.gitignore: Add
* d/control: Explicitly build-depend on gir1.2-gio-2.0-dev
* d/control: Add ${gir:Depends}, ${gir:Provides} to all relevant packages
* d/control: Stop build-depending on libgirepository1.0-dev.
This is unnecessary now that we depend on gir1.2-gio-2.0-dev and
a new enough gobject-introspection.
* d/rules: Enable cross-compilation of gobject-introspection data

- pkexec: run commands as another user with polkit authorization
polkit is an application-level toolkit for defining and handling the policy
that allows unprivileged processes to speak to privileged processes.
It was previously named PolicyKit.
.
pkexec is a setuid program to allow certain users to run commands as
root or as a different user, similar to sudo. Unlike sudo, it carries
out authentication and authorization by sending a request to polkit,
so it uses desktop environments' familiar prompting mechanisms for
authentication and uses polkit policies for authorization decisions.
.
By default, members of the 'sudo' Unix group can use pkexec to run any
command after authenticating. The authorization rules can be changed by
the local system administrator.
.
If this functionality is not required, removing the pkexec package will
reduce security risk by removing a setuid program.

- policykit-1: transitional package for polkitd and pkexec
polkit is an application-level toolkit for defining and handling the policy
that allows unprivileged processes to speak to privileged processes.
It was previously named PolicyKit.
.
This transitional package depends on polkitd, the system service used by
polkit, and pkexec, a setuid program analogous to sudo. They were
historically packaged together, but have been separated so that users of
polkitd are not required to install pkexec.
- policykit-1-doc: documentation for polkit
polkit is a toolkit for defining and handling the policy that
allows unprivileged processes to speak to privileged processes.
It was previously named PolicyKit.
.

- polkitd-pkla: Legacy "local authority" (.pkla) backend for polkitd
polkit is an application-level toolkit for defining and handling the policy
that allows unprivileged processes to speak to privileged processes.
It was previously named PolicyKit.
.
This package configures the polkitd D-Bus service to read default
authorization policies from .desktop-style files in subdirectories of
/var/lib/polkit- 1/localauthorit y. It is compatible with the version of
polkitd used in Debian 11 and older releases.
