Dear Maintainer,
I am still a bit lost with *kit stuff. I am unsure if this bugs is in
console-kit or in policy-kit. Please, reassign as needed. I have
assigned the bug to policy-kit because there is nothing in the source
code of console-kit that call the culprit method. I suppose that
console-kit relies on a lib provided by policy-kit.
Here is my error message:
Apr 22 21:51:39 xbmc dbus-daemon[1008]: dbus[1008]: [system] Rejected send
message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.4" (uid=0 pid=1104
comm="/usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon --no-daemon ")
interface="org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Authority" member="CheckAuthorization"
error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.127" (uid=0 pid=7563
comm="/usr/lib/policykit-1/polkitd --no-debug ")
So, console-kit-daemon running as root tries to invoke some method of
polkitd running as root. And it is denied. I suppose there is
something missing in dbus configuration provided by policykit. There
are authorizations for
"org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.AuthenticationAgent" but not for
"org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Authority".

Sounds like an application in your desktop session requested special
(admin) privileges, but you don't have a policykit authentication
agent
running in your session.
what kind of desktop are you using?
Hi Michael!
Thanks for your quick answer. I was going to install policykit-1-gnome
but the message disappeared after a reboot. I think that I should have
just restarted dbus after installing policykit-1... I am not using any
desktop environment, it was just XBMC started using xinit. Everything
works as expected now.
Sorry for the trouble.
