Convert to polkit from usermode consolehelper for gaining root privileges
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. In this case the current package policy (in rpm spec) has been migrated here and is as follows: draknetcenter requires authentication as the current user. Everything else require authentication as an administrator.
