Version: 2:17.1+dfsg1-3
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

to use kodi-standalone to a full extend, one need to add a polkit file to allow
the kodi user to shutdown the machine.
As the systemd service is also provided by the package, I think it would be good
to provide this file as well or note it in the README (I was not able to find
it).

The content of the file /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/kodi.pkla
should look like this:

[kodi user]
Identity=unix-user:kodi
Action=org.freedesktop.login1.*
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=no
ResultActive=yes
