Yes, I am aware of that. The point is: somehow polkit is able to
distinguish between local and remote session. The link I posted
suggested to remove dbus-user-session because that's is the component
setting the "local" flag - at least that's what I deducted from that
posting. It might be that it does not solve the issue, but it could be
interesting to find out if it changes the general behaviour. E.g. it
could be that after removing the package it also stops working for
local sessions. Which would point us to examining what the package
changes and if that change can be further extended to also work for
x2go sessions.
