Description Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 04:20:58 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 20:18:32 UTC

Added 'FutureFeature' keyword to avoid rawhide base

Comment 2 Miloslav Trmač 2009-06-09 17:17:00 UTC

(Waiting for a PolicyKit release with a stable interface.  It's also not quite clear how PolicyKit supports applications that don't use DBus.)

Comment 4 Miro Hrončok 2020-01-03 11:58:34 UTC

Automation has figured out the package is retired in rawhide.

If you like it to be unretired, please open a ticket at https://pagure.io/releng/new_issue?template=package_unretirement
