after uninstalling gnome-desktop, xfce4-policyagentkit error. I ended up reinstalling Eos, because I had an error in the “failed authentication” application manager, and I couldn’t install polkit even in TTY. Any options to repair this in tty ??
how did you installed gnome-desktop ?
xfce4 does use gnome-polkit but thats in autostart , if you go from Displaymanager to TTY should not affect like sudo pacman …,
but gnome-polkit is depency of xfce4-session that means you also removed that also ,
but how did you removed gnome-desktop ?
to connect what happened…
In auto start was all enabled, pacman -S gnome in terminal. Gnome-polkit missing in etc/xdg/autostart. I deleted gnome with pacman - Rsun . Reinstalled xfce in try, and unlucky. Sudo thunar don’t let me to put gnome -polling again in etc/Xdg/autostart.
mm pacman -Rsun i never used
try sudo pacman -S polkit-gnome
whas a type mistake btw polkit-gnome
check in xfce autostart if those are selected to autostart …
if not create a new one that with following
/usr/lib/polkit-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
if you type in terminal now :
/usr/lib/polkit-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
you get some message ?
systemctl status polkit.service
Yes , all was enabled . Didn’t work because I had pacman error. Authentication failed . But now is done , reinstalling eos . Thx and bookmarked.
