Dear maintainers,

The policykit-1-gnome agent should not be autostarted in GNOME Flashback
session anymore because it now has its own polkit implementation [1].

I believe the same also applies to the GNOME Classic session because it
is based on gnome-shell.

Thus I think that GNOME should be removed from the OnlyShowIn list in the
autostart desktop file. A patch for this (against packaging git) is attached.

(I also thought about using NotShowIn for that, but desktop-file-validate
said it doesn't like both OnlyShowIn and NotShowIn fields there.)
