Hi, unfortunately we weren't able to prepare our

we went
different path
than old one. The old one was just one method for
checking
authorization +
GUI part, now it's 1:1 mapping of Polkit-gobject-1
library
to Qt. So it
was more difficult but now we have ground for KAuth &
KDE
authentication
agent. It should be really easy to write support! I
hope next
one, two
weeks to release it and ship in Rawhide! For F12
we're
going to use Gnome
authentication agent but as Polkit us not so wide
used in
Fedora yet, it's
not a big deal - PackageKit + some system
configuration tools
(kdump,
services). In KDE 4.4. situation is going to change
as lot of
KDE system
settings modules are going to use KAuth.
Thanks for the clarification :-) It's always good too
know the whys and wherefores, as it makes setting up
one's system easier.
