Created attachment 33864 [details] [review] Trivial fix Here's the trivial patch from downstream bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/consolekit/+bug/534514 This is a dangerous function for normal users, since they can elevate their privileges with that. Only root processes (like gdm) should call this function. Not allowing it for normal users is deliberate. |
