I'm not sure how this error condition would ever be hit, since I see
that policykit ships the /var/run/PolicyKit directory within the
package.
But that in itself is a bug, so I'm sponsoring this fix with the one
added change to drop /var/run/PolicyKit from the package. Amended
changelog:
policykit (0.9-1ubuntu3) intrepid; urgency=low
[ James Westby ]
* Don't chown /var/run/PolicyKit in the postinst, as /var/run is on a tmpfs,
and it should be the job of the init script to do this. (LP: #275355)
* Use root:polkituser for /var/run/PolicyKit in the init script, as this
is what the postinst uses. Thanks to Chris Coulson for spotting this.
[ Steve Langasek ]
* Don't ship /var/run/PolicyKit in the package either, since the init
script should always handle it per the above.
