This package has a Build-Depends on the transitional package policykit-1,
which has been separated into polkitd, pkexec and (deprecated)
polkitd-pkla packages. The runtime dependency was already switched to
polkitd | policykit-1.

If this package requires polkit at build-time for the gettext
extensions polkit.its and polkit.loc, please build-depend on both
libpolkit-gobject-1-dev and polkitd, even if the package does not
actually depend on libpolkit-gobject-1 at runtime. This is because
the gettext extensions are currently in polkitd, but might be moved to
libpolkit-gobject-1-dev in future (see #955204).

If it needs polkitd for some other reason, please build-depend on
polkitd. I'm assuming it probably doesn't need pkexec at build-time?

For packages that are expected to be backported to bullseye, it's OK to
use an alternative dependency like polkitd | policykit-1. The backports
build-dependency resolver is willing to consider less-preferred alternative
build-dependencies, unlike the unstable build-dependency resolver.

The policykit-1 Build-Depends is indeed for the polkit.its file.
Unfortunately, alternative build-depends do not seem to work (at least sbuild failed with Build-Depends: polkitd | policykit-1)

So I kept policykit-1 as b-dep, as NM get's regular stable backports.

Either PolicyKit get's a stable backport itself, or I'll postpone the b-dep switch to bookworm+1.

Regards,
Michael
