authentication agent for PolicyKit

PolicyKit-gnome provides a D-Bus session bus service that is used to bring up authentication dialogs used for obtaining privileges.

This implementation was originally designed for GNOME 2, but most GNOME-based desktop environments, including GNOME 3, GNOME Flashback, and MATE, have their own built-in PolicyKit agents and no longer use this one. The remaining users of this implementation are Cinnamon, XFCE and Unity.

Tags: Implemented in: C, User Interface: Graphical User Interface, X Window System, Role: role::program, security::authentication, Interface Toolkit: GTK
