policy-kit installation wrong?!

[steadfasterX]

In my case the following happened:

I installed the extension over extensions.gnome.org
Then after the extension gets enabled gnome asks multiple times for my password to execute cpufreqctl

The policy file gets installed correctly into:
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/mko.cpupower.policy

but within that file I find the line:

<annotate key="org.freedesktop.policykit.exec.path">/home/tfi/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/cpufreqctl</annotate>

which is either not correct or the installer missed to moved the cpufreqctl file from the directory src/.

I "fixed" it by modifying the path to:
<annotate key="org.freedesktop.policykit.exec.path">/home/tfi/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/src/cpufreqctl</annotate>

btw: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/mko.cpupower.setcpufreq.policy contains the path to src/

hmm is the other one a left-over from a previous install?

this could be indeed a leftover from a previous version.
I will adapt the installer to remove old versions of the policy file...

I add the same issue and the solution given here solve the issue for me.

I can confirm this issues. I also had a second policy, probably from a previous version and got asked to enter a password multiple times on each login and whenever I tried to use the extension.
Removing the second policy resolved the issue for me.

Still broken. Still the same issue. Two polkit files, the older being mko.cpupower.policy, the newer being mko.cpupower.setcpufreq.policy. Deleting the older one fixes the issue.

This is being worked on in #107
