[ptxdist] [PATCH] polkit: add pkexec install option

[Bruno Thomsen <bruno.thomsen@gmail.com>]

Disable default install of pkexec SUID binary as it's an old way of
executing a command as another user or with elevated privileges.

Fedora will also avoid installing pkexec[1], and put it in an optional
compat RPM package.
