[systemd-devel] org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units - which unit?

[Mantas Mikulėnas]

In JS-based polkit rules, the action usually comes with 'unit' and 'verb'
polkit variables -- according to src/core/dbus-unit.c:

    if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-unit" &&
action.lookup("unit") == "foo.service") { return polkit.Result.YES; }

In older polkit versions which use .pkla rules, variables are not available
at all.
