Hi Peter, sorry if you tried to do it and we failed to reply, but you could you please coordinate with the Xfce team before such uploads? Right now, this is a strong NACK for the NMU, because of the lack of coordination, especially this late in the freeze. Unless I'm mistaken (and feel free to provide more information I might have missed) xfce-polkit is not maintained upstream (last commit on https://github.com/ncopa/xfce-polkit is three years old). Unless it's really picked up under the Xfce project umbrella I don't think we need to have it in Debian at all. Even if it's found suitable for Forky, you don't really need to push the dependency addition through an NMU, you could have discussed that on #1090384 (before doing the first xfce-polkit upload). Also you can use merge request on Salsa, that would be easier for us than manually merging the changes after an NMU.
