NAME
lxqt-policykit-agent - Polkit agent for LXQt: the faster and lighter QT Desktop Environment

SYNOPSIS
lxqt-policykit-agent [Currently No command line arguments]

DESCRIPTION
This module handles policykit for LXQt. The authentication agent is used to make the user of a session prove that the user of the session really is the user (by authenticating as the user) or an administrative user (by authenticating as a administrator).

The LXQt modules are desktop independent tools and operate as daemons for the local user for desktop specific operations.

LXQt is an advanced, easy-to-use and fast desktop environment based on Qt technologies, ships several core desktop components, all of which are optional:

 * Panel
 * Desktop
 * Application launcher
 * Settings center
 * Session handler
 * Polkit handler (this)
 * Display manager handler

These components perform similar actions to those available in other desktop environments and their name is self-descriptive. They are usually not launched by hand but automatically, when choosing a LXQt session in the Display Manager.

BEHAVIOR
The module detected on shares privilege escalation and maintain a security dialog that ask for the user's key need for action.

AUTOSTART
The module is only shown in LXQt desktop, but one can create an autostart action for other desktop environments.
