Debian 13 (Testing) pkexec not work

[charliemartinez]

When I try to run a program that needs to request the root password graphically, such as Synaptic, the password is requested in the terminal.

Example:

`~ synaptic-pkexec
==== AUTHENTICATING FOR com.ubuntu.pkexec.synaptic ====

Authentication is required to run the Synaptic Package Manager/

Authenticating as: root

Password: `

Tested on:
