Is this actually a bug in consolekit? For all I know, consolekit works
on Fedora (which has selinux enabled by default). I thus think its
rather a problem in the Debian selinux packages.

In case I don't get further justification from your side, I'll have to
close this bug (same is true for the other bugs that were filed against
policykit, dbus and avahi)

Cheers,
Michael
