Created attachment 757064 [details] build.log Expected Result: - When emerge sys-block/gparted-1.3.1::gentoo it should able to identify pkexec and build a gparted with policykit support and has policykit file org.gnome.gparted.policy installed. Actual Result: - During emerge it could not find pkexec and ignore all policykit stuff. Step to reproduce: - emerge -pv =sys-block/gparted-1.3.1::gentoo Additional information: 1. pkexec do exist on my system, and has correct version. RyzenDesktop ~ # which pkexec /usr/bin/pkexec RyzenDesktop ~ # pkexec --version pkexec version 0.120 2. When run ./configure directly instead of using portage to emerge gparted-1.3.1, it could detect pkexec correctly.

Created attachment 757065 [details] the log of ./configure outside portage emerge Please not the difference of the following line between this file and the build.log: checking for pkexec >= 0.102... 0.120 found
This appears to be because we pass GKSUPROG=kdesu as a configure argument. It was added without explanation in https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=fcfd176a0ebb96b43d221543edbfd2586d96f433 I think that was a mistake and the intention was to override GKSUPROG if USE=kde was set.
Hm, but there's code in src_install that looks like it tries to sed out kdesu if USE=policykit: if ! use policykit; then if use kde; then cp "${_ddir}"/gparted{,-kde}.desktop || die cp "${_bdir}"/gparted{,-kde} || die sed -i -e '/Exec/ s:gparted:gparted-kde:' "${_ddir}"/gparted-kde.desktop || die echo 'OnlyShowIn=KDE;' >> "${_ddir}"/gparted-kde.desktop || die fi else sed -i -e 's:kdesu::' "${_bdir}"/gparted || die fi
Huh. No, that's not it. Removing GKSUPROG=kdesu doesn't allow configure to detect pkexec. Weird.
Ah, got it. When pkexec is run from configure via portage it fails with: > pkexec must be setuid root
FEATURES=-userpriv allows it to be detected.
(In reply to Matt Turner from comment #7) > FEATURES=-userpriv allows it to be detected. which also disables usersandbox. FEATURES=-usersandbox is enough to allow it to be detected.
Filed a merge request upstream with polkit to allow printing the version even when the pkexec binary is not setuid root.
