[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#759515: policykit-1: restarting systemd prevents me from performing policykit actions

[brian m. carlson]

Package: policykit-1
Version: 0.105-6.1
Severity: normal

Whenever I restart systemd (usually because of an upgrade), I lose the
ability to enable and disable networking and wi-fi in Network Manager,
as well as the ability to mount disks automatically and restart the
computer from the Shut Down menu in MATE.  This is very annoying, as I
must log out and log back in again each time, and systemd is updated
rather frequently.
