Bug Description
Impact: Xfce users cannot access polkit-
policykit authorizations graphically.
Intrepid fix: the last merge included the change to the .desktop file.
TEST CASE:
* Run an Xfce session, look in the menus for "Authorizations", it shouldn't be
present.
* Install the fixed package
* Look in the menus again, "Authorizations" should be present (Applications > System > Authorizations).
Regression potential: very low, change is a simple change to a .desktop file.
=== Original report:
Binary package hint: policykit-gnome
Hi,
The Authorizations entry in the System menu is not visible
in Xfce, as it has Only-Show-In: GNOME in its .desktop file.
Cody, I'll fix this bug in the upcoming Intrepid upload, and
then we can start the SRU procedures if that is what you would
like.
Thanks,
James

This bug was fixed in the package policykit-gnome - 0.8-1ubuntu1
---------------
policykit-gnome (0.8-1ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low
* Merge from debian unstable (LP: #232236), remaining changes:
- Add 03-fix_i18n.patch to set the translation domain.
This is fixed upstream and should be in the next release.
* Increase the Build-Depends on libpolkit* to 0.8, as that
is required to build.
* Add XFCE to the .desktop file as Xubuntu have requested
that it be available to them. Upstream is aware of the issue, but
may wish to keep the current state of the art, as in other places
Xfce users don't want to see it. (LP: #232234)
policykit-gnome (0.8-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release. patches/ 01-missing_ polkit_ grant_lib. patch
* debian/control
- Add Build-Depends on pkg-config.
* debian/
- Removed, merged upstream.
