I fully agree with you all. But why should we fail during ./configure
if polkit-policy-file-validate is absent and not during "make check",
when it's actually needed?
Please keep in mind that I don't want to remove the policy file
validation, please see my first patch
polkit_policy_file_validate_check.patch.
