drop polkitgtkmate library and its docs #39

Closed monsta closed 6 years ago

monsta commented 6 years ago

it contains only PolkitLockButton widget which nobody uses by now and GTK+3 already has GtkLockButton

same as done upstream long ago: https://git.gnome.org/browse/PolicyKit-gnome/commit/?id=1340926a935b60b2b605a8d0d9b256e3a83c3d7d https://git.gnome.org/browse/PolicyKit-gnome/commit/?id=b8d700121941bb1f032b95c428d2e52a11c5d330

Yes, the polkit agent executable should work as before. It doesn't use this library. The library is only needed when you want to place an "unlock privileges" button in your app, but now there's GtkLockButton for that.

Do any of our applications (such as configuring the panel clock) that have such an unlock button use the old PolkitLockButton widget? If not we should be able to drop this without issue

monsta commented 6 years ago

No, our apps don't use it.

lukefromdc commented 6 years ago

Than this should be ready to go
