Description Alexander Sack 2009-10-16 01:41:28 UTC

Created attachment 30474 [details] [review]
_ref authority in _get

we got a bunch of NM crashes that seem to be due to i polkit not reffing the authority in _get ... attached an mbox patch that fixes this.

This makes sense, since http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/polkit/polkit-1-polkitauthority.html#polkit-authority-get says that the object must be unrefed when done with it.

Yeah, dcbw has been bugging me about this. Thanks for the patch. Committed.
