polkit-kde-agent does not work

Hello,

I did update to Plasma 6, and at some point the login stopped working and showed a bunch of gibberish. So I installed LXDM and fixed Plasma 6. After that I figured I'd install some other DEs in case this happens. Well, now my polkit doesn't work. I uninstalled all the other DMs but it still doesn't work.

Found polkit-dumb-agent-git on Aur and used that for a while. But now some update broke it. And I can't install it again because

Code: [Select]
--   Package 'libsystemd', required by 'virtual:world', not found
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:634 (message):
  The following required packages were not found:

   - libsystemd

Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:862 (_pkg_check_modules_internal)
  CMakeLists.txt:10 (pkg_check_modules)

I do have lib32-artix-archlinux-support and artix-archlinux-support installed


Anyway, now I can't automount my drives and I can't sudo edit files in vscodium because the polkit popup never shows. If I try to mount a drive it says:

Code: [Select]
An error occurred while accessing '7.3 TiB Encrypted Drive', the system responded: An unspecified error has occurred: Object does not exist at path "/"



Here is my /etc/environment:

Code: [Select]
QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="-blink-settings=darkModeEnabled=true -enable-features=OverlayScrollbar,OverlayScrollbarFlashAfterAnyScrollUpdate,OverlayScrollbarFlashWhenMouseEnter"

DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1
POWERSHELL_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1
MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1

Here's this:

Code: [Select]
$ /usr/lib/polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1
New PolkitAgentListener  0x5a9fd6340540
Adding new listener  PolkitQt1::Agent::Listener(0x5a9fd6748050) for  0x5a9fd6340540
Listener online
Authentication agent result: true



Code: [Select]
$ cat /etc/group- | grep 'wheel'
wheel:x:998:user


If I do this, I do get a dialogue popup box, but it never works after for mounting a dolphin drive.

Code: [Select]
echo $$
887
pkill polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1
pkexec ls

Please, all advice is appreciated.
