CMake files which go into kdelibs/cmake/modules/ must follow the commit policy 
we have for them: http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/CMake_Commit_Policy , §7 
says "All patches must follow the coding style for CMake files in KDE.", 
which is here: http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/CMake_Coding_Style

The PK stuff does not follow these rules.
There are several issues, please fix them:

* it works only if pkg_config works:
http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/CMake_Coding_Style#.28Not.29_Using_pkg-config

* it doesn't use a special prefix for the pkg_config variables, this can break 
stuff and lead to ugly effects: 
http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/CMake_Coding_Style#.28Not.29_Using_pkg-config

* I missed the point where the new files were posted for review on 
kde-buildsystem (maybe due to my vacation ?)


Some things which should be improved (but which are not in the style guide, 
but maybe should be):

* please license the cmake files under BSD license, as all other our cmake 
files are (reason: cmake is completely BSD licensed, no GPL/LGPL-licensed 
files will be accepted into cmake cvs)

* please use the find_package_handle_standard_args() macro, if there are no 
real reasons against using it

* what's up with POLICY_FILES_INSTALL_DIR and 
dbus_add_activation_system_service() ? They are not documented and they don't 
follow the naming conventions, i.e. they don't start with "POLKITQT_"
