• log in

On what version of Vanilla OS this happens?

Unreleased

seems like the issue is from upstream polkit, as their default fallback agent has been broken for 10 years... wow

[fluoriteByte]

bug fix was released in Feb 9th but last pkexec release was in January 17

[fluoriteByte]

will attempt to merge the bug fix into the older version using the debian sources

[fluoriteByte]

im too stupid to actually package pkexec with the bug fix so if anyone wants to here's the patch file from the pr: https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/polkit-org/polkit/pull/423.patch

im just awaiting approval of my salsa account so i can suggest it to debian's team

[fluoriteByte]

edit: removed files because it broke vanilla OS integrity check

[axtloss]

the integrity check wouldn't break if added to the image correctly so that's not really an issue here, however I don't like the idea of having yet another package to maintain and would rather wait for debian to upgrade the package

This was fixed upstream.
