Hello. Sometimes I use pkexec to run thunar as root on my FreeBSD 14 (recently upgraded from 13.2),but after the upgrade it does not work anymore : marietto@marietto:/usr/home/marietto $ pkexec thunar ==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.xfce.thunar ==== Authentication is required to run Thunar as root. Authenticating as: mario (marietto) ** (process:4449): WARNING **: 13:46:43.685: Error reading line from helper: nothing to read ==== AUTHENTICATION FAILED ==== Bus error even pkexec only gives the same error : marietto@marietto:/usr/home/marietto $ pkexec ==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.policykit.exec ==== Authentication is needed to run `/bin/csh' as the super user Authenticating as: mario (marietto) ** (process:4300): WARNING **: 12:54:52.939: Error reading line from helper: nothing to read ==== AUTHENTICATION FAILED ==== Bus error Any idea about how to fix it ? I started a post here : https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/authentication-is-needed-to-run-bin-csh-as-the-super-user.91302/ but we haven't been able to get rid of the problem. -- Mario.
