Hi Kevin,

indeed, I had'nt build any polkit's or policykits. But I need a little help to 
do that:
I could download polkit-qt and polkit-qt-1 from
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/kdesupport/polkit-qt
However, both cmakes ask for a lot of packages like polkit-agent-1, 
polkit-gobject-1,polkit-dbus,polkit-grant. I could not find this packages 
googling.

Some questions:
1.) do I need polkit-qt _and_ polkit-qt-1 or are they alternatives ?
what are the differences to policy kit
2.) where can I download all the packages I need ?
3.) do the BLFS-Book instructions (  svn-20100221 ) for polkit-0.94, 
PolicyKit-0.9 applay for KDE-4.4.0 ? I mean, could I proceed according ?

Sorry if I am making nasty questions; I am not a distributor, but I think 
the experiences of a "scratch" man could also be interesting for the 
developers.

Thank you very much. Perhaps James could assist me also a little
Cheers,
Edgar
