Dear Maintainer,

Please mention in the release-notes the removal of policykit-1-gnome
https://bugs.debian.org/990271
https://bugs.debian.org/1093965

apt-cache rdepends policykit-1-gnome
policykit-1-gnome
Reverse Depends:
  cpupower-gui
 |timekpr-next
 |thunar
 |riseup-vpn
  pcmanfm
 |nm-connection-editor
 |network-manager-applet
 |gnome-system-tools

AIUI This will leave XFCE desktop environment
with no authentication agent.

thunar
Recommends: policykit-1-gnome | polkit-1-auth-agent

but neither package is now available in Trixie


Regards,
Peter

I suggest that the release notes recommend Xfce4 users
use mate-polkit for now (xfce-polkit was blocked by the freeze)

This should be fixed in the package as discussed in #1090384. Release notes is not the place to work around package bugs that could just be fixed. Thus closing.

Cheers

Jochen
