polkitd crashes (in libmozjs-17.0.so)

Hi,

I am running a 1 week old Arch installation (with Cinnamon, 64 Bit under VirtualBox 4.3.26, host is 64 Bit Windows 8.1).
After every boot I see the following error in journalctl (and repeating as polkitd crashes periodically).

What can I do? (As polkitd is linked against libmozjs-17, couldn't one have it linked against a newer version or does politkd make use of legacy stuff?)

polkit version is 0.112-2
libmozjs version is 17.0.0-1

(Found very similar issues in Fedora and Redhat bugtracker - without a real solution).

Thank you!

Archie

Re: polkitd crashes (in libmozjs-17.0.so)

Bump for this, I have this same problem.
They have updated polkit to 0.113 which fixes this problem, and hoping that update comes to arch repos soon.
