BTW, bonus follow-up to this: as part of researching the background of
polkit, I noticed that we never actually entirely got done moving off
usermode :( There are still over a dozen packages in the distro that
require it:

anaconda-live-0:36.15-1.fc36.x86_64
beesu-0:2.7-40.fc35.x86_64
chkrootkit-0:0.55-3.fc35.x86_64
hddtemp-0:0.3-0.49.beta15.fc35.x86_64
mate-system-log-0:1.26.0-1.fc35.x86_64
mock-0:2.16-1.fc36.noarch
pure-ftpd-0:1.0.49-11.fc36.x86_64
setuptool-0:1.19.11-23.fc35.x86_64
subscription-manager-0:1.29.21-1.fc36.x86_64
system-config-rootpassword-0:1.99.6-25.fc35.noarch
system-switch-java-0:1.1.8-6.fc35.noarch
system-switch-mail-0:2.0.1-14.fc35.noarch
usermode-gtk-0:1.114-3.fc35.x86_64
vpnc-consoleuser-0:0.5.3-42.svn550.fc35.x86_64
xawtv-0:3.107-5.fc35.x86_64

the tracker bug for the conversion is still hanging out at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502765 , never quite got
closed. Don't suppose anyone wants to see whether this could be pushed
over the line...?
