1 It is at least 20 window managers / desktops in gentoo that know
2 nothing about sys-auth/polkit, or can be installed without it,
3 including ROX, Razor-QT, XFCE, afterstep, *box, enlightenement, fluxbox,
4 fvwm, fvwm-crystal and wmaker.
5
6 But, and this is a big but, the 3 desktop profiles in portage depend on
7 polkit.
8
9 A desktop profile that doesn't depend on polkit can be easily done from
10 the desktop profile with the following USE changes:
11
12 USE="-consolekit -policykit -udisks -upower"
13
14 Can such a desktop profile be incorporated in portage?
