Don't know whether that helps, but you may use e.g. dex
and comparable utilities to start desktop files (this project provides one). Just move the .desktop
file into one of the autostart directories (if your distro doesn't do it already) and you should be able to start it using dex -a
(put it in your .xinitrc). But be watchful, that also starts other applications that are provided in one of the autostart-directories. Further information from the ArchWiki about autostarting applications.
[Optionally, just use dex /path/to/desktop/file
to only start polkit-dumb-agent
].
I used that in combination with polkit-dumb-agent
, and it seemed to work fine. But because of other issues and not fully understanding polkit I switched to lxqt-policykit
, which seems to be a more complete polkit-agent implementation. So can't speak for it now.
Kind regards!

I have tested this but this does not seem to work. The program is started, but the looping issue is the same. I guess I will check out the lxqt one then :(

Ouh sorry, it seems like I didn't read the issue description fully :/ Yes, that looping issue was exactly why I switched to the lxqt stuff :( Don't quote me on that, but for me IIRC it worked when entering the root password, so probably has something to do with polkit rules.

I installed polkit from the repos and did not config it whatsoever. The AUR package had the same problem. Maybe I will post about this there as well, bc this repo is not active so much.

It looks like this repo is dead and the problem was not resolved based on activity. I will modify the Arch wiki to not that this program has this bug.
