This repository holds additional PolicyKit rules as used in Salix. These
files are typically installed under /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/
(which
is what the Makefile does by calling make install
).
PolicyKit is an application-level toolkit for defining and handling the policy that allows unprivileged processes to speak to privileged processes. PolicyKit is specifically targeting applications in rich desktop environments on multi-user UNIX-like operating systems.
