Title:
  Move polkit support to the upstream branch

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in “synaptic” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently, polkit support for Synaptic exists only as an Ubuntu patch:
  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  branches/ubuntu/precise/synaptic/precise/view/head:/debian/patches
  /11_use-pkexec.dpatch

  This is not ideal from i18n POV, because it adds a quite visible string, which is not translatable, because
  - the policy.in file is not listed in POTFILES.in
  - even if it were, Synaptic is now in Universe, so we have no langpack/translations support for the Ubuntu Synaptic package.

  Therefore, I'd like to request to integrate this patch properly into
  the upstream tree.
