My idea was that running pkttyagent unconditionally, modulo checks that

tty helps in some testing scenarios as reported by Jim Fehlig and does not
really cause any issues. I originally wanted it in because it also made
pkttyagent auth work with redirected input into virsh (with a connection that
requires polkit authentication and without a session-wide polkit tty agent,
basically making pkttyagent necessary to succeed). But anyone running virsh
like that is asking for problems already anyway =)

But I'd really like to get to the bottom of this. Why does sleep()
suspends for that long and why isn't polkit-agent killed?
I got sidetracked before I could dig deeper, however I did notice the test
process and all children were in a stopped state per /proc/<pid>/status. I sent
SIGCONT to the processes and the test successfully completed. I'm baffled why
these processes become stopped when pkttyagent is in the picture and work fine
otherwise.
I forgot to mention, it's likely a problem in the test framework code, which is
apparently unmaintained by still used by SUSE QA. "I got sidetracked" is a nice
way to say I didn't have a lot of motivation to read through a gob of old,
unfamiliar perl code :-).
