[Bug 1577227] Re: shutdown fails with password request

[god]

Seems like xubuntu somehow managed to break user sessions: I'm member of
sudo group and default .pkla in /var/lib/polkit-1 should allow me to
shutdown without asking for password if there is an active session.
Apparently polkit fails to see the session - I recall there's been some
news regarding xfce and consolekit, not sure if it's related.
