Description Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 04:32:52 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 Richard W.M. Jones 2009-05-27 07:20:34 UTC

Upstream? Patches?

Comment 2 Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 07:36:07 UTC

I don't have any patches. If you want to move it upstream that's fine but consolehelper is Fedora specific and deprecated at this point. Might get dropped in the future so it is useful to move this forward now.

Comment 3 John Poelstra 2009-06-08 20:18:38 UTC

Added 'FutureFeature' keyword to avoid rawhide base

Comment 4 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2011-08-31 00:42:51 UTC

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
