[Bug 1713313] Re: Unable to launch pkexec'ed applications on Wayland session

 

Here is my simple script for grepping "<allow_any>auth_admin</allow_any>
      <allow_inactive>auth_admin</allow_inactive>
      <allow_active>auth_admin</allow_active>
    <annotate key="org.freedesktop.policykit.exec.allow_gui">true</annotate>" inside /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/*.policy files in packages.

How to use:
1. apt-file search /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/ | grep "\.policy$" | awk '{print $1;}' | sed 's/[:]/ /g' | sort | uniq > polkit.txt
2. execute my script with ./do-pk.sh polkit.txt
4. it will do apt-get download, dpkg-deb -R, grep 'allow_.*auth_admin'&&'allow_gui.*true' and  and print
some info:

...
aptdaemon is not affected by polkit
    <annotate key="org.freedesktop.policykit.exec.allow_gui">true</annotate>
apt-offline-gui is affected by polkit
...

Hope it helps.
