"5.1.13. Changes to polkit configuration":

For consistency with upstream and other distributions, the polkit
(formerly PolicyKit) service, which allows unprivileged programs to
access privileged system services, has changed the syntax and location
for local policy rules. You should now write local rules for customizing
the security policy in JavaScript, and place them at
/etc/polkit-1/rules.d/*.rules. Example rules using the new format can be
found in /usr/share/doc/polkitd/examples/, and polkit(8) has further
information.

Previously, rules could be written in pkla format, and placed in
subdirectories of /etc/polkit-1/localauthority or
/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority. However, .pkla files should now be
considered deprecated, and will only continue to work if the
polkitd-pkla package is installed. This package will usually be
installed automatically when you upgrade to bookworm, but it is likely
not to be included in future Debian releases, so any local policy
overrides will need to be migrated to the JavaScript format.
