make generates the following line in the desktop file

Exec=/usr/libexec/xfce-polkit

Which should be:

Exec=/usr/lib/xfce-polkit/xfce-polkit

Any ideas?

What happens if you do: ./configure --libexecdir=/usr/lib/xfce-polkit

An user of Fedora reports:
The problem is (and that's the report) the (null) output inside the xfce4-session's information tab. I would have expected a bit more descriptive information there. So I assume, that if (null) is being shown under Fedora 22 then it most likely will show (null) under Fedora RH as well. May I ask if you could have a look in your xfce4-sessions and report if it shows (null) for you as well ?

@ncopa Your hint works. So what about those underscores in front of "Comment" and "Name"?

Those underscores prevent a descriptive title in the autostart settings dialog of xfce4-session.

and .desktop files should generally have valid Name (and ideally Comment) keys. To put another way, why use non-standard _Name and _Comment here rather than Name and Comment?
