policykit is not at all responsible for setting device permissions, FYI.
This was broken by, and fixed again, in udev:
udev (143-7) karmic; urgency=low
* debian/rules: Add "prep" target to get a buildable source tree. This cares
for autoconfiscation, and fixes gtk-docs' makefile snippet to get along
with our separate build trees.
* debian/rules: Call dh_install with --fail-missing, to avoid regressions
like the recent dropping of the ConsoleKit helper.
* debian/udev.install: Add missing ConsoleKit helper. This repairs device
ACLs.
* debian/udev.install: Add missing usr/share/doc/udev (README.keymap and
"writing udev rules")
* debian/udev.install: Install udev.pc. Not much here, but can't hurt, and
other software might rely on it.
* debian/libgudev-1.0-dev.install: Install gtk-doc documentation.
* debian/libudev-dev.install: Install gtk-doc documentation.
* debian/copyright: Fix formerly versionless reference to GPL.
* debian/control: Put libudev-dev into section "libdevel".
* debian/rules: Call dh_installdeb after dh_makeshlibs, so that the
debhelper scripts from the latter actually get active. Fixes ldconfig
calling.
