getting rid of consolekit and policykit

systemd makes them redundant, getting rid of them is pretty easy:

edit /etc/pam.d/system-auth and enable pam_systemd.so:

session         optional        pam_systemd.so

and re-emerge pambase

USE=-consolekit emerge  pambase

and sincle polkit is used by upower and udisks (automount) and these 2 is used by kdelibs, you may want ot rebuild kdelibs too:

USE="-upower -udisks" emerge  kdelibs
