console-kit-daemon: CRITICAL: cannot initialize libpolkit

[Rich Winkel]

Does this error sound familiar?  It has me stumped.
dbus is running with no apparent errors, but
hald refuses to stay alive.  Running it in verbose mode gives:

hald[3242]: 22:22:11.734 [E] ck-tracker.c:371: Error doing GetSeats on ConsoleKit: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 0
hald[3242]: 22:22:11.734 [E] ck-tracker.c:812: Could not get seats and sessions
hald[3242]: 22:22:11.734 [W] hald_dbus.c:5806: Could not initialize seats and sessions from ConsoleKit

???

Thanks,
Rich
