Attachments:	Fix daemon binary collision with policykit-0.9

Description Nirbheek Chauhan 2009-07-26 09:31:34 UTC

This is caused due to this commit: 002ce3d1364f7db00989d19e49c3a137e6ce6404

"Rename some man pages and the daemon binary"

"/usr/libexec/polkitd" from polkit-0.93 conflicts with the file of the same name form PolicyKit-0.9.

Solution: Keep it as polkitd-1 (like in 0.92)

Comment 1 Nirbheek Chauhan 2009-07-26 09:55:12 UTC

Created attachment 28014 [details] [review]
Fix daemon binary collision with policykit-0.9

Attached patch partially reverts the commit, polkitd -> polkitd-1

Comment 2 David Zeuthen (not reading bugmail) 2009-07-26 20:37:24 UTC

This can be avoided if you build with $libexecdir=$libdir/polkit-1 or similar.

Comment 3 Rafał Mużyło 2009-09-25 07:56:11 UTC

Well, aside of that it seems a bit inconvenient (it should
install side-by-side without any help),
it won't help for the manpage.

On a semi-related note: while hal is in maintenance mode,
it uses 0.9 PolicyKit API - will it be ported or will
side-by-side installation be required here ?
