Description Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 04:20:11 UTC

Description of problem:

usermode/consolehelper is deprecated since Fedora has a better framework now
called PolicyKit. Please switch to using that instead

Comment 1 John Poelstra 2009-06-08 20:18:31 UTC

Added 'FutureFeature' keyword to avoid rawhide base

Comment 2 Terje Røsten 2009-10-20 19:46:56 UTC

Could you please provide a document which shows how to do the usermode/consolehelper to PolicyKit switch. A few searches did not reveal anything useful.

Comment 3 Terje Røsten 2012-05-08 07:07:11 UTC

This seems to be much more helpful:
