Is polkit a hard requirement? I seem to recall systems where sudo was always needed for systemd stuff. Polkit was either not installed or somehow disabled.

Now that I looked, Debian lists it under ‘Suggests’, so apparently it’s not mandatory. Still, I get the impression it’s at least preferred.

Polkit is compile-time optional in systemd, debian has it disabled by default.
