You can change the default value at:
# $EDITOR /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/50-localauthority.conf

The default file states:
# Configuration file for the PolicyKit Local Authority.
#
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE, it will be overwritten on update.

It seems there is no CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK to exclude that peculiar
file from CONFIG_PROTECT.

Maybe this line should be removed from that file? I wondered which
file should be edited to keep my settings over updates.


The way I've restored the default value of group "0" in polkit-0.104-r1 is I've added 60-gentoo.conf to /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d that will override the one with lower number, 50.

So that news item draft that suggested altering this file was stupid to begin with.

Sorry for confusion.
