Re: Polkit: prompt for root password



Thank you for your advice, I have found the way:
Comment out file /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/51-debian-sudo.conf, which overrides /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/50-localauthority.conf and makes polkit consider members of "sudo" groups as administrators.

Yours sincerely, Jayson Willson

    I have also tried creating
    /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/49-rootpw_global.rules with the same
    contents, [...]


The problem with that is simply that the PolicyKit in Debian
Unstable/Testing/Stable does not read the JavaScript rules files.
Only the version using JS-based rules files (in experimental for ages)
does that. So you might want to search for a solution using the old
configuration syntax here.
Cheers,
     Matthias
