[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#549500: libvirt-bin: Please port to PolicyKit 1

[Michael Biebl]

Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 0.7.1-1
Severity: normal
User: pkg-utopia-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: policykit-1

Hi,

your package uses policykit which is going away and replaced by policykit-1.
We don't want to ship two policykit stacks in squeeze, so please port your
application to this new API or disable policykit support.

The new policykit-1 packages can safely be co-installed to the existing
policykit package for easier porting and testing.

See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=499970
which might contain a patch that can be applied for Debian.
