Quesion on pkexec and polkit

[dkmcgowan]

I installed synaptic and noticed synaptic-pkexec was not working, so I set a root password in debian and made sure dbus was running but it seems there is no polkit running. I'm not sure if that would even work through proot. I was able run from command with sudo, but now I was curious about pkexec and polkit in proot and if that work work?
