Description Marko D 2011-03-29 00:16:22 UTC 
The file polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1.desktop (installed by gnome-extra/polkit-gnome-0.101-r1) has invalid values in the last row:

AutostartCondition=GNOME3 if-session gnome-fallback

With this entry, no application compiled with (or using) polkit will show an authentication dialog. For example virt-manager or cpufreq-selector will not show any authentication dialog. If the entry above is removed, then the authentication dialog is functional.

Gnome version: 2.32.1

Reproducible: Always

Could you paste your ~/.xsession-errors?

I can confirm the same thing is happening for me. As soon as I remove that or I manually start /usr/libexec/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 virt-manager asks me for my root password when I open it. Also I looked in /etc/xdg/autostart/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1.desktop on my Fedora machine with GNOME 2.30 and it does not have the AutostartCondition.

Alright, I'll fix this today, thanks for confirming.
