For Oneiric we will apply a simple patch to system-config-printer to
drop the PolicyKit support. This way system-config-printer will continue
to behave like in Natty, also with cups-pk-helper being installed.

This is only a temporary solution. After Oneiric we will do improvements
on PolicyKit and or cups-pk-helper to implement an easy-to-use
PolicyKit-based authentication in system-config-printer.
