Hi,

first ConsoleKit is not deadware as you call it.

It is still used on systems with upstart, but not anymore on systems
using systemd. This is not good for development, having two different
systems, they do not make life easier, but it is what it is.

So it depends on your system what init system it's using. I beleive I
saw you something wroting aboyt service files. Then ConsoleKit is
replaced by systemd login daemon.

HAL is not used anymore and was replaced bu udisks, which on his turn
was replaced bu udisks2.

So you have Policykit, udev, udisks2 and maybe ConsoleKit.
Got the picture?

Oh I forgot, Policykit has undergone also some transformations, make
sure you have the latest version.

But what distro do you have? The packagesystem of that should take
care of it, unless you use of course something like
LinuxFromScratch...
