I tried to avoid this OT, apologize. I always forget that Linux is the
most used OS in the universe and that I'm the only one who isn't fine
with some rulings.

However, the topic is "polkit package upgrade patch".
As already reported, both, the version from the repositories + this
patched version works with the NM applet on my Xfce, unfortunately the
patched version brakes Thunar.
