[Bug 851135] Re: lightdm 0.9.6-0ubuntu1 does not read/respect the default policykit actions nor a .pkla in/var/lib/polkit-k1/localauthority/50-local.

 

Updated bug description - this seems to extend to the default supplied
.pkla also

** Summary changed:

- lightdm 0.9.6-0ubuntu1 does not read/respect a .pkla in/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d
+ lightdm 0.9.6-0ubuntu1 does not read/respect the default policykit actions nor   a .pkla in/var/lib/polkit-k1/localauthority/50-local.

** Description changed:

+ Updated - it seems none of the default actions are being used, ie.
+ update manager, time & date, ect.
+ 
  Particularly during dev I place a .pkla in that location to avoid having to constantly auth some common actions like synaptic, ect.
  This has always worked fine until todays lightdm upgrade.
  Downgrading to previous lightdm restores use of the .pkla
