Polkit is currently broken in images built with multilib and systemd. This is because the patch, 0001-do-not-hardcoded-libdir.patch, applied on top of the polkit source code modifies where the polkitd binary is installed, but it does not modify the polkit.service file to start the binary from its new location. At first it seemed reasonable to modify the systemd service file to search for the binary in the correct place. This change, as well as what the patch (0001-do-not-hardcoded-libdir.patch) already does was proposed to the polkit maintainers at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92094 During the discussion with the polkit maintainers it became apparent that the change to support multilib polkit should not be done with a patch to the polkit source code, but instead a change to the polkit recipe. Polkit correctly installs libraries when multilib is in use without any changes to its source code. What is being changed by 0001-do-not-hardcoded-libdir.patch is not where the polkit libraries are installed but where the binaries are installed. Installing binaries in /usr/lib when baselib is lib64 is acceptable (see http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch04s06.html ). So, instead of patching polkit to install its binaries under the same library directory as its libraries we maintain the design of the polkit installer to install the binaries in /usr/lib. This is the same as what is done in distros like Fedora that supports multilib. With this patch the polkit package, when built with multilib, installs files into /usr/lib* as follows: polkit/usr/lib64/libpolkit-agent-1.so.0 polkit/usr/lib64/libpolkit-gobject-1.so.0 polkit/usr/lib64/libpolkit-gobject-1.so.0.0.0 polkit/usr/lib64/libpolkit-agent-1.so.0.0.0 polkit/usr/lib polkit/usr/lib/polkit-1 polkit/usr/lib/polkit-1/polkitd polkit/usr/lib/polkit-1/polkit-agent-helper-1 Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa <Martin.Jansa@gmail.com>
