You're tres right, Milan. But you showed already twice a desktop guy
that actually learned/understands the *nix systems before not breaking
them but hooking in to them :) Kudos!

OK. What I meant was that if we continue shipping these files, then we
should also ship PolicyKit config files that make use of these groups -
not let the sys admin fix that bug.

This isn't a policykit bug. It's not getting involved at any stage of this as
far as I can see. If network-manager wants to call it to find out if the user
can
connect to the internet then it can be involved, but until that point there is
nothing
to fix in that package.
Thanks,

James: Do you know whether it's possible to allow users members of
certain Unix groups to perform certain actions? In PolicyKit's docs, I
can only find auth_self and auth_admin. If the program needs to check
that the user is member of the group itself, the whole purpose of
PolicyKit is destroyed.

If policykit broke the desktop and unprivileged profiles this is a bug
with policykit not being set up to honor those unix groups.
It seems to merely match all users in admin group to root.

If these groups are really obsolete, we should not create them at all,
they would disappear from users-admin.

I'm fairly certain this group is no longer used any more. Privileges for
networking should all be handled via Policykit now

Although, I don't think network manager uses Policykit to restrict who
can connect to wireless networks
