Is polkit broken?

@Aragorn

sudo pacman -S polkit

This is one of the first things I tried and its listed in my first comment. I can try it again.

sudo pacman -Rns polkit
sudo pacman -S polkit

You might also try resetting permissions as indicated in post#4:

@soundofthunder

Fix polkit-1 directory and file permissions:

sudo chown -R root:root /usr/lib/polkit-1/
sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/polkit-1/
sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/polkit-1/polkitd /usr/lib/polkit-1/polkit-agent-helper-1
sudo chmod 644 /usr/lib/polkit-1/rules.d/*

Reboot.
