Package: riseup-vpn,phosh
severity: grave

On mobian under phosh (librem 5), riseup-vpn gives error.
output of riseup-vpn attached.

phosh provides polkit-1-auth-agent

phosh 0.23
riseup-vpn 0.21.11+ds1-2+b1

I've tried to reproduce this by running $ pkexec echo bla

On both my Pinephone running Mobian, as well as on my Librem 5 running PureOS
the polkit authentication dialog is presented.

If you send a SIGUSR1 to phosh you can enable debug logging.
You should find something like the following in your journal:

Jan 17 18:10:04 hades phosh[1264]: New prompt for Authentication is needed to
run `/usr/bin/echo' as the super user
Jan 17 18:10:04 hades phosh[1264]: Adding PHOSH_STATE_MODAL_SYSTEM_PROMPT to
shells state. New state: PHOSH_STATE_MODAL_SYSTEM_PROMPT

While I've not tried it with riseup this test should already indicate whether
polkit authentication itself is working in phosh itself.

I maintain riseup-vpn in debian. As you might see in the dependency list, it 
depends on
policykit as "policykit-1-gnome | polkit-1-auth-agent"

If this is not functional for you, there is nothing I can do from riseup-vpn 
side to make
it work. As it works for Evangelos, please kindly check if this works as well 
for you and ensure
that this is not a local issue.

Thank you
Nilesh
