[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#892583: flatpak: should recommend policykit-1 so that it works without --user

[Simon McVittie]

Package: flatpak
Version: 0.11.3-2
Severity: important

Adrian Bunk pointed out on IRC that at least some uses of Flatpak need
policykit-1, but it doesn't have any dependency relationship with
policykit-1.

I haven't checked yet, but I think "flatpak --user" (installing apps
for just yourself) should work OK without polkit. The part that won't
work is running flatpak without --user to install apps system-wide.
If that guess is right, then this is a bug but not release-critical -
I think having flatpak Recommends: policykit-1 would be proportionate.
