minus-square@vsis@feddit.cllinkfedilinkEnglish45•2 months agoOh, it’s gonna use polkit. Sudo bloat is a grain of sand compared to polkit. Why people want to replace sudo with polkit? Visudo is no near as obscure as configuring polkit. I hope distro maintainers don’t follow this.
minus-square@lengau@midwest.sociallinkfedilink14•2 months ago…is pkexec not good enough already as a polkit based sudo replacement? Why would one need to systemd-ify that?

minus-square@john89@lemmy.calinkfedilink0•2 months agoFirst thing I do with any new desktop installation is disable polkit prompts. Fuck having to enter my password every time I want to do something.
