Description Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 09:18:42 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 Rahul Sundaram 2009-05-27 11:00:58 UTC
Axel - Synaptic is using consolehelper and not the Xorg driver. Not sure why you reassigned.

Comment 2 John Poelstra 2009-06-08 20:18:51 UTC
Added 'FutureFeature' keyword to avoid rawhide base

Comment 4 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2015-03-03 13:12:19 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
