    Saying "I do not trust you, so I'm going to stonewall your entire work with which you could have built that trust" is not viable either. Besides, none of this was said. Hellwig did…

    This strikes me as entirely missing the idea of Radicle. What you are saying is basically "why automate things if you can just do them manually". But worse is not better; there is …

    run0 does not send any signal to polkit, systemd does.

    In the same vein, sorry it doesn't work for you, but that has not been the prevailing experience ;) (Same goes for "unpolished and flaky".)

    I mean, systemd-run could do privilege escalation from day one. It's even the default (otherwise overridable by systemd-run -pUser= ). I have used systemd-run --shell on countless …

    Just as a side note to side note (preemptive strike against accusations of systemd for using gotos) — the Linux kernel has many of them either. This is idiomatic C-style error hand…
