From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's the same error if I try VANILLA or GAPPS

[SOLUTION] It works after you enter a password using "lxpolkit".

Do you have something like polkit-gnome installed?

Edit: Glad you found a solution. Just for completeness: You also have to start the polkit agent via your sway config file. For polkit-gnome it would have been

exec /usr/libexec/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1

polkit-gnome is not available in dnf. I did install polkit-kde, polkit-qt and mate-polkit to see if it works. Same problem, sadly

Might have to reboot for the polkit agent to be started.

Nope, rebooting doesn't do anything
