After upgrade, Log Out -> Restart and Shutdown buttons dimmed (fix) #84

Putting this issue up for reference, since I experienced it myself recently.

If your RPi3 system has recently autoupdated (or if you have recently run genup manually) you may find that the Restart and Shutdown buttons in the Log Out dialog no longer work (they are dimmed). You may also experience some auth issues with NetworkManager.

This is due to an issue with the most recent instance of sys-auth/polkit. To fix it (by downgrading to a working variant again), issue:

demouser@pi64 ~ $ sudo emaint sync --repo rpi3
demouser@pi64 ~ $ sudo emerge -v1 sys-auth/polkit

Reboot once complete, and the normal Log Out dialog behaviour should be restored.

Alternatively, it will autocorrect on your next weekly genup run.

I'll leave this issue open for a few weeks, so anyone who has been affected by this has a chance to read it.

Apologies, I should really have picked up on the polkit issue when testing the last staged update ><

Closing now, since new image (1.4.2) has been released.
