Hello Laurent,

Regarding this bug, could you please kindly let us know what's the
proper way forward you would be ok to support? I would be willing to
help get there if needed.

I see currently 2 options described in this bug report:
- Change --with-polkit=strict to --with-polkit=permissive at package
build time. Looking how other distro are building it, Fedora uses
permissive [0] and Arch Linux too [1].

- Use the alternative system to enable the switch at runtime. This
seems more evolved and would require changes upstream if we need to add
a command line option (there I could try to help but my programming
skills are somewhat limited - so getting this upstream would take
longer, if no one else is working on it).


Best regards,
