The symlink is created at the build time (and defaults to the server config)

Apparently in recent versions of firewalld, the build system installs:

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 3916 jun 18 16:27 
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.desktop.policy.choice
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root   49 jun 18 16:27 
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.policy -> 
org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.server.policy.choice
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 4024 jun 18 16:27 
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.server.policy.choice

That makes our live even easier to create the alternative
