I wasn't suggesting disabling by default, just adding it to the command explanations. However expanding the note is reasonable too. I can do that. >> Second, I get a test failure: >> >> /PolkitBackendJsAuthority/get_admin_identities: Error getting system >> bus: Could not connect: No such file or directoryError loading >> /var/run/ConsoleKit/database: Error statting file >> /var/run/ConsoleKit/database: No such file or directory >> ** >> (/tmp/polkit/polkit-0.106/test/polkitbackend/.libs/lt-polkitbackendjsauthoritytest:98 >> >> I have not installed consolekit.

I was away when that was posted. I usually read everything in -support, but I just missed that. I'm still running into a problem though even with consolekit installed and dbus running: Passed 9 tests.
