I am sure that I do not understand.

Here is my best attempt at understanding.

If you would be kind enough to give me more specific instructions.

$dpkg -S PolicyKit1
polkitd: /usr/share/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.conf
polkitd:
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.service

$dpkg -S freedesktop | grep polkit
polkitd: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.policykit.policy
udisks2: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.UDisks2.policy
geoclue-2.0:
/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/org.freedesktop.GeoClue2.pkla
packagekit:
/var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/org.freedesktop.packagekit.pkla
packagekit: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.packagekit.policy
colord: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.color.policy
polkitd: /usr/share/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.conf
packagekit: /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/org.freedesktop.packagekit.rules
modemmanager:
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.policy
elogind: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.login1.policy
polkitd:
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.service
geoclue-2.0: /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/org.freedesktop.GeoClue2.rules


In general everything works, I am just trying to save errors in log
files for myself and everyone else.


Thanks,
