We could stop forcing consolekit, if requirements are met. "ConsoleKit is currently not actively maintained. The focus has shifted to the built-in seat/user/session management of Software/systemd called systemd-loginctl" quote from http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ConsoleKit Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: force USE="systemd -consolekit" remove consolekit package from system Actual Results: System session started with kdm is able shutdown/reboot computer. System is able run, mount devices and do everything like before, except: KShutdown shutdown/reboot not working [version KShutdown-3.0_beta7] SDDM is not able use shutdown/reboot until KDE release fixed version (4.11) [ https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/3 ] Expected Results: When KDE 4.11 will be release stop forcing consolekit USE flag for KDE profile. Shutdown probably too.
KShutdown-3.0_beta7-r1 is patched to work without ConsoleKit.
Will be done when KDE SC 4.11 hits the tree.
Now that 4.11 is in the tree, we can fix this bug. Suggestion - remove consolekit from use.force and add: profiles/targets/desktop/kde/package.use.force: <kde-base/kdm-4.11.0 consolekit I will commit with someone else's ACK.
Thanks, fixed in CVS. + 20 Aug 2013; Michael Palimaka <kensington@gentoo.org> + +targets/desktop/kde/package.use.force, targets/desktop/kde/use.force: + Don't force USE="consolekit" on newer KDE versions wrt bug #468500.
