My installed versions for upower, libupower-glib1:amd64, and
libupower-glib1:amd64 are all 1:0.9.23-2+devuan1.2
The polkit actions:
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.restart
org.freedesktop.consolekit.stop-multiple-users
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.restart-multiple-users
seem to be those that would control the remaining issues, and the
installed version of consolekit is 0.4.6-5, from:
us.mirror.devuan.org_merged_dists_jessie_main_binary-amd64_Packages
Do you get any ouput from running?:
find /etc/polkit-1/localauthority -type f -print -exec cat '{}' \;
If so, could you post it?
IMPORTANT: There is, across the internet, mention of a different policy
file, /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.login1.policy instead
of org.freedesktop.consolekit.policy. According to the ArchWIki, it is
package systemd-logind that stands behind this alternative.
