[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#1025639: firewalld: autopkgtest depends on transitional policykit-1 package

Source: firewalld
Version: 1.2.2-1
Severity: normal
User: pkg-utopia-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: policykit-1
Control: block 1025540 by -1

This package's autopkgtest-based test suite depends on the transitional
package policykit-1, which has been separated into polkitd, pkexec and
(deprecated) polkitd-pkla packages.

If the tests communicate with polkitd via D-Bus, please represent that
as a Depends on polkitd.

If the tests run /usr/bin/pkexec, please represent that as a Depends
on pkexec.

If the tests require legacy .pkla files to be processed, please represent
that as a Depends on polkitd-pkla (but note that this package will probably
be removed from testing/unstable after Debian 12 is released).

For packages that are expected to be backported to bullseye, it's OK to
use an alternative dependency: polkitd | policykit-1 and/or
pkexec | policykit-1.

This is part of a mass bug filing, see
<https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2022/10/msg00211.html>.

Thanks,
