I,m not finding alot in config.log to help, and google not much help

Compiled fine on mine this is my configure:

Code:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libexecdir=/usr/libexec --libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} --localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=/usr/lib/polkit-1 --with-authfw=shadow --disable-static

LIBDIRSUFFIX is set to "64"

What configure switches are you using?

Hi Keith

I followed the book switches

Code:

--prefix=/usr \

            --sysconfdir=/etc \

            --localstatedir=/var \

            --libexecdir=/usr/lib/polkit-1 \

            --with-authfw=shadow \

            --disable-static

Much the same must be a problem in something auto detected is PAM installed it's not on my system, the other stuff I have installed.
The errors seem to point to "polkitbackendjsauthority" js is the lib from spidermonkey, maybe the problem is there my installed version is js-1.8.5.

No I havn't installed pam spidermonkey is js-1.8.5 as well there were no errors in spidermonkey maybe i,ll go back and reinstall

Hi

The return from

Code:

groupadd -fg 27 polkitd &&

useradd -c "PolicyKit Daemon Owner" -d /etc/polkit-1 -u 27 \

        -g polkitd -s /bin/false polkitd

useradd: UID 27 is not unique. << is this the correct output.

Although
polkitd:x:1001: in /etc/group
polkituser:x:27:27:Policy Kit Daemon User:/dev/null:/bin/false in /etc/passwd

Have a look at the man page and /etc/login.defs its usual to keep system gids between SYS_GID_MIN and SYS_GID_MAX and normal gids between GID_MIN and GID_MAX.
Having a system gid in the normal user gid range probably won't do any harm but why cause potential problems for yourself?

Ok

Problem overcome thks to some help, I reverted back to older version polkit-0.105 all seems to have worked out colord didn't complain
