 K900 | Uhhh polkit is already off by default no? | 20:33:21 |
| K900 | Well enabled with GNOME I think | 20:33:29 |
| K900 | And other DEs | 20:33:39 |
 Capypara | I asked how to become maintainer a few times in the past and never really got anywhere | 20:43:59 |
| Capypara | I still have no idea how GNOME updates are supposed to be done properly | 20:44:14 |
| Capypara | or who is currently even maintaining it | 20:44:27 |
| Capypara | In reply to @hexa:lossy.network
can someone find out what in gnome, if anything, requires pkexec? gnome-initial-setup and gnome-settings use/used it, with efforts to eventually get rid of it according to people I asked. I can have a closer look tomorrow if they still do. | 20:47:33 |
| Capypara | did a quick look through the Github mirror of all gnome projects. g-i-s still uses it and so does gnome-system-monitor actually. And gvfs for admin://. And more. | 20:51:09 |
 hexa | ok, so I just opt into pkexec for gnome tor the time being and mention these consumers | 21:04:54 |
| hexa | other DEs too | 21:05:21 |
| hexa | I'll make you do the change for Plasma, enjoy :p | 21:53:08 |
| hexa | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/530106 | 22:01:24 |
 winston | gnome-remote-desktop also uses pkexec, but its broken atm: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/523122/changes#diff-c374f3bf676530fb1bff12bc0f6bae7249a91270c8fd922a3c3c95f24c75bd9a | 23:49:42 |
| winston | and gnome-system-monitor could be phased out for 51, replaced by Resources

| hexa | I'll leave cleaning that up to you :) | 23:58:05 |
