I see also a broken behaviour. I am doing a dual boot - with and

Till the libpolkit-backend has been linked against systemd, it has
worked just fine.
The problem is now that backend is trying to blindly use systemd, and
fails if systemd is not running as init. With that change the user
authentication for network-manager or pcmanfm mounting are broken -
there is just a pcmanfm msgbox "Not Authorized".
So *libpolkit-backend should first try to verify if systemd is an
init program, and if not - do not try to use it for authentication* -
it will definitely fail - so there is no point doing so.
I understand that running without systemd is not a typical Debian
installation, but dependence on systemd should not be a mandatory for
Debian breaking everything either.
The only thing that policykit expects is a registered logind session
(you can use loginctl command to check if it exists), not systemd as
PID1. Moreover, network-manager also using logind for session tracking
since 0.9.8.8-1.
My point is that if I overwrite the libpolkit-backend 1.0.5-5 with the
.so from 1.0.5-4 - the network manager and pcmanfm manage to
authenticate (probably using consolekit)
It is an important bug.
Could you please check if you have a logind session registered. Also
which DM are you using to login?
Laurent, no DM. Imagine an embedded system starting X first, asking
questions (and services ;-0) later... Here is the logincmd data :
/woody> loginctl list-sessions
SESSION UID USER SEAT
c1 1000 user seat0
1 sessions listed.
/woody> loginctl session-status c1
c1 - user (1000)

And here is the magic of the system. I do not start systemd explicitly,
I guess D-Bus is taking care of that:
