Public bug reported:
After today upgrade, any time the brightness change, by manual action or
by the power settings to dim the screen on battery I get a popup to
authorize gsd-backlight-helper to run as superuser, looking at the ps
output I see:
pkexec /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper --set-
brightness 15
Let me know if there is any extra info I can provide.
