First of all, the fear of GConf has really grown to quite irrational
levels. Just look at
http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Google_Summer_of_Code_2010#Fork_GVFS_to_provide_a_more_lightweight.2C_stripped_down_version_without_Gnome_dependency 


Anyway, studying rpm -q --requires polkit-gnome, I have a really hard
time coming up with anything that could be objectionable, bloated or
unnecessary:

libatk-1.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libc.so.6()(64bit)  
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)  
libcairo.so.2()(64bit)  
libfontconfig.so.1()(64bit)  
libfreetype.so.6()(64bit)  
libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libgio-2.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libglib-2.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libgmodule-2.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libgobject-2.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libpango-1.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libpangocairo-1.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libpangoft2-1.0.so.0()(64bit)  
libpolkit-agent-1.so.0()(64bit)  
libpolkit-gobject-1.so.0()(64bit)  
libpolkit-gtk-1.so.0()(64bit)  
libpthread.so.0()(64bit)  
libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)  
librt.so.1()(64bit)  
polkit >= 0.95
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1
rtld(GNU_HASH)  
rpmlib(PayloadIsXz) <= 5.2-1


Just what do you want to strip out here ?
