Description Gene Czarcinski 2014-09-23 20:15:40 UTC
Description of problem:
1.  If you are going to have a git repository for liveusb-creator then please keep it up to date!  3.12.1 is not in https://git.fedorahosted.org/git/liveusb-creator.git

2.  Currently most packages use polkit to authenticate rather than requiring root's password.  The attached patches implementent the changes.  They are based on 3.12.0 which is the latest in the git repostory.

Two of the patches (1 and 3) simply update the spec file to maake it more in line with that in the Fedora rpm.  The real updates in in patch 2 which provides the code and patch 4 which changes the spec file for the changed package.
