I don't, I just know that on Debian the configs are in /etc and the bug
you mention, comments was what caused me to comment.

"Debian patches to make /etc/kde4 the config directory".

Of course it may just be that debians KDE hasn't got the polkit
rubbish as it is older.

I remember reading a while back that distros had some blunders in
writing secure sudoers files and so it was emptied. Is that true?

I still ascert that apps adding groups with NOPASSWD sudoers lines
perhaps even commented out by default in all or some cases is far
better than polkit for many reasons. Any counter argument can apply
to sudo too and rather easily.
