There's been a few bugs about an expected error from polkit:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873799 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=872166
The error is:
Authorization requires authentication but no agent is available.
The error means that polkit needs a password, but there is no polkit agent registered in your session. Polkit agents are the bit of UI that pop up and actually ask for your password.
Preface the error with the string 'polkit:' so folks can hopefully make more sense of it. --- daemon/remote.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)

This line fails syntax-check:

It seems a bit unreasonable here, but you need to put the translation macro there.
} else { - virReportError(VIR_ERR_AUTH_FAILED, "%s", - pkout && *pkout ? pkout : _("authentication failed")); + virReportError(VIR_ERR_AUTH_FAILED, "%s", _("authentication failed")); }
VIR_FREE(pkout);
The change makes sense to me and I've also hit the error and had to look where it comes from.
ACK once you make it pass syntax-check.

Thanks Peter, pushed with that tweak. - Cole
