<pre>Package: policykit-1
Version: 0.105-12
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
After updating policykit-1 to 0.105-12 Shutdown, reboot and require
authentication to actions `org.freedesktop.login1.power-off` etc,
although they have `<allow_active>yes</allow_active>` and no overrides in
/etc/...
Auth required for shutdown via `Log Out` menu option and when pressing power
button
`policykit-1-gnome` with same varsion is installed
Desktop environment is XFCE with lightdm
All entries in lightdm power menu are inactive as is power button.
This behavior shows only with sysvinit init system, when booted with systemd
all works as it should
</pre>

<font size="+1">I have a similar stretch/sid system, XFCE with
lightdm. Currently with kernel:<br>
Linux debian 4.2.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.2.1-2 (2015-09-27)
x86_64 GNU/Linux<br>
using sysvinit.core instead of systemd-sysv.<br>
My "problem" is that my system works without this bug with policykit-1
0.112-5.3.1~really-0.105-8<br>
I have no idea what update installed this version. If i look for
it in the Debian package repositories<br>
in Main under policykit-1, package version 0.112-5.3.1 is not
displayed. <br>
To make matters more confusing when I had this bug on a similar system,
I tried to fix it by installing<br>
version 0.113-1 from experimental. This created a right mess which
after several trial and error'<br>
ad hoc fixes got me to version 0.112-5.3-1, again without a clue for
where this package came from.<br>
Anyone have any ideas. I have the same bug on my laptop which I'd
like to fix but I opted for <br>
systemd-sysv instead rather than risk losing the current setup.<br>
<br>
Yours,<br>
