polkit is better integrated into various environments, both console and GUI and offers better access rules and prevents the internal need to run su which is prone to errors and doesn't offer an environment agnostic prompt to the user. As pkexec does not like being run from a forked process, the forking in the wrapper when running under X has been dropped. mga#11125
