Actually, that is the point, as Andreas pointed out, udisks can use whichever
of logind or consolekit is installed.

With some policykit updates, I have this working.

Please review:

https://git.devuan.org/devuan-packages/udisks2/commits/suites/beowulf-proposed

and

https://git.devuan.org/devuan-packages/policykit-1/commits/suites/unstable-proposed

Together they ensure that

- udisks2 can be used with either elogind or consolekit
- the correct policykit backend gets installed for either elogind or consolekit

Comments?

Thanks.
