# lxqt-policykit
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
lxqt-policykit is the polkit authentification agent of LXQt.
|
||||
|
||||
[polkit](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/polkit/) is a software framework to handle privileges of processes.
|
||||
In LXQt it is e. g. used to extend the privileges of the GUI tools of [lxqt-admin](https://github.com/lxde/lxqt-admin/).
|
||||
These are launched by a regular user. But in order to apply the settings that can be adjusted root privileges are needed
|
||||
and acquired via polkit.
|
||||
|
||||
Among the various components of polkit the authentication agent is the one to query the user for credentials and hence
|
||||
comes with its own GUI like this one of lxqt-policykit.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
While there's only a single implementation of all other polkit components there are various different authentication
|
||||
agents provided by the various desktop environments. Normally these can be used interchangeably, that is lxqt-policykit
|
||||
can be used in an LXDE session or lxpolkit, the authentication agent of LXDE, can be used in an Xfce session. Normally
|
||||
it's better to use the implementation provided by a distinct desktop environment as it integrates better, though.
|
||||
|
||||
Technically, lxqt-policykit is just a single binary `lxqt-policykit-agent` which has to be running all over the LXQt
|
||||
sessions and is therefor launched as so-called LXQt Module, see [Configuration](#configuration).
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the naming lxqt-policykit is strictly speaking an anachronism. It refers to Policykit which was the predecessor
|
||||
of polkit. The name wasn't changed when Policykit was replaced by polkit as both provide roughly the same features albeit
|
||||
they are technically different.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installing
|
||||
|
||||
### Compiling sources
|
||||
|
||||
Runtime dependencies are [liblxqt](https://github.com/lxde/liblxqt) and its dependency
|
||||
[libqtxdg](https://github.com/lxde/libqtxdg) as well as polkit-qt5, to build Git and CMake are needed in addition.
|
||||
By default lxqt-policykit is pulling translations from repository [translations](https://github.com/lxde/translations/) at
|
||||
compile time, see file README.md of the latter.
|
||||
|
||||
To compile, run `cmake`, `make` and `make install`.
|
||||
`cmake` can be invoked in an out of source build directory and will normally need variable `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr`.
|
||||
`make install` can be invoked with `DESTDIR=<some path>`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Binary packages
|
||||
|
||||
#### Arch Linux
|
||||
|
||||
The latest release is provided by package `lxqt-policykit` in repository community, the actual master checkout can be
|
||||
compiled by packages `lxqt-policykit-git` from the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Debian
|
||||
|
||||
Package `lxqt-policykit` is available in the official repositories as of Debian stretch. For now it is comprising the
|
||||
translations as well but these will probably be outsourced in package `lxqt-policykit-l10n` one day.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Fedora
|
||||
|
||||
Package `lxqt-policykit` is available as of Fedora 22.
|
||||
|
||||
#### openSUSE
|
||||
|
||||
Package `lxqt-policykit` is providing the binary, `lxqt-policykit-lang` the translations. Both are available as of
|
||||
openSUSE Leap 42.1.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
As mentioned in section [Overview](#overview) binary `lxqt-policykit-agent` is started as LXQt Module, which is a particular
|
||||
way of LXQt to launch binaries at the beginning of an LXQt session and keep them running all the time.
|
||||
This is handled by desktop entry file `/etc/xdg/autostart/lxqt-policykit-agent.desktop`. It belongs to
|
||||
[lxqt-common](https://github.com/lxde/lxqt-common/) and is featuring key `OnlyShowIn=LXQt;` restricting it to LXQt sessions.
|
||||
So no further action has to be taken as far as LXQt is concerned. In order to use lxqt-policykit in other sessions the key has
|
||||
to be modified accordingly and/or removed, optionally after copying the file to a user specific directory, normally
|
||||
`~/.config/autostart/`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
From a user's point of view the usage is limited to interacting with the GUI as seen above.
