[packagekit] dbus policy error

[Sveta Anisimova]

Hi Richard,

unfortunately, the same error persists with the latest 1.9 release:

[svet at svet autoupdate]$ sudo ./pk-frontend-test-test.py update_package
"emacs;22.1.50-4.fc9;i386;development"

    return p.UpdatePackage(args[0][0])

Are you using the latest packagekit from git? There's a few nice fixes
for PolicyKit in git.
