or nothing happens.

Comment 1 Jory A. Pratt gentoo-dev 2012-06-23 13:01:58 UTC
if you look in dmesg, it will show that polkitd was killed due to a rwx. This is caused by spidermonkey, the best solution is to unmask 1.8.7 and upgrade to it.
Comment 2 wbrana 2012-06-23 13:32:54 UTC
I have upgraded and rebooted, but it didn't fix it

Comment 3 wbrana 2012-06-23 14:39:42 UTC
I have changed to USE="-polkit", removed (including spidermonkey and polkit) or rebuilt relevant packages, but bugs are still present.
Comment 4 wbrana 2012-06-23 14:41:38 UTC
Previous USE was supposed to be USE="-policykit"

After upgrade did you remember to revdep-rebuild, this would have forced polkit to relink against mozjs187
Comment 7 wbrana 2012-06-23 18:12:59 UTC
After upgrade of spidermonkey I have emerged polkit again. I have already removed spidermonkey and polkit.
Comment 8 wbrana 2012-06-29 07:14:41 UTC
Now I can start apps, but logout still hangs. I have no spidermonkey and no polkit.

This is usually seen with dbus issues, the best solution here would be to simply re-emerge dbus dbus-glib. If that fails to resolve your problem with logout and such plz cc the xfce team on the bug.

This problem is probably specific to my machine. I can logout by switching to terminal and back. Someone will submit new bug if necessary.
