&gt;<i> Hi...
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> As this page reads
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ConsoleKit">http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ConsoleKit</A>
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> CK is not maintaned anymore, it is deprecated.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> We can not remove the packages because of dependencies:
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> werewolf:~# urpmq --whatrequires consolekit consolekit-x11 lib64consolekit0
</I>&gt;<i> accountsservice
</I>&gt;<i> consolekit
</I>&gt;<i> consolekit-x11
</I>&gt;<i> elsa
</I>&gt;<i> kdm
</I>&gt;<i> lib64consolekit-devel
</I>&gt;<i> lib64consolekit0
</I>&gt;<i> lxdm
</I>&gt;<i> polkit
</I>&gt;<i> slim
</I>&gt;<i> xinit
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> but in the meantime I have disabled it completely following this:
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=246130">http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=246130</A>
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> and disabling it in systemctl.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Everything seems to work fine, I have noticed no problem.
</I>&gt;<i> Will it be possible to build the above packages without CK support and
</I>&gt;<i> with systemd-enabled options it they are there ?
</I>&gt;<i> So mga3 will be a CK-free edition ;)
</I>
It would certainly be nice!

I'm not 100% sure the various DMs can be built without consolekit
support easily, but I don't think it's super problematic to rip it out
in a patch. If there is specific consolekit support in the DMs then it
will likely need to be replaced with logind support. I know there are
patches for some of them if we don't include it by default.
