Introduction to PolicyKit
PolicyKit is a framework for defining policy for system-wide components and for desktop pieces to configure it. It is used by HAL. Note that this is not compatible with later versions; see Polkit if you need such a version.

Dependencies
Required
Optional
PolKit User/Group
groupadd -g 26 polkit &&
useradd -c "Policy Kit Daemon User" -d /dev/null \
-u 26 -g polkit -s /bin/false polkit
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/PolicyKit --localstatedir=/var \
--with-polkit-user=polkit --with-polkit-group=polkit &&
make
Install the package
make install
Multilib
32Bit
Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/PolicyKit --localstatedir=/var \
--with-polkit-user=polkit --with-polkit-group=polkit &&
make
Install the package
make install
N32
Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATHN32}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib32/PolicyKit --localstatedir=/var \
--libdir=/usr/lib32 --with-pam-module-dir=/lib32/security \
--with-polkit-user=polkit --with-polkit-group=polkit &&
make
Install the package
make install
64Bit
Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib64/PolicyKit --localstatedir=/var \
--libdir=/usr/lib64 --with-pam-module-dir=/lib64/security \
--with-polkit-user=polkit --with-polkit-group=polkit &&
make
Install the package
make install
Configuration
To allow HAL to automount removable drives such a thumbdrives, edit /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf and add the following between the <config></config> tags:
<match action="org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable">
<return result="yes" />
</match>
Without this you will receive an error similar to org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable no <--(action,result) when you "plug in" your thumb drive.
You then must upgrade your util-linux to the latest version or HAL automounting will fail with the following error FAT: Unrecognized mount option "uhelper=hal" or missing value. Instructions for building the latest version of util-linux can be found the development CLFS books.
