[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#619432: policykit-1-gnome: do not start agent in GNOME3 normal session

[Frederic Peters]

Package: policykit-1-gnome
Version: 0.99-2
Severity: normal


gnome-shell comes with its own implementation of a policy kit agent, so the one
provided by policykit-gnome shouldn't be started.

The mechanism to do so is available in gnome-session 2.91, thanks to a new key
in the autostart file, AutostartCondition.

Setting it to "GNOME3 unless-session gnome" means that for sessions started
with gnome-session, the session named "gnome" won't get the agent started. (the
other known session name is gnome-fallback).
