Since I can't tell what services are being enumerated, I can't tell you which package to install. The error is not caused by policykit, but by one of the services policykit is attempting to load. XFCE has this issue withudisks

Not that I know of. Pre-systemd systems use policykit/consolekit in conjuction with Dbus to enforce login permissions. This leads to two possibilities. 1. The user you're logged in as is not a member ofsome group, andsome grouphas permission to access the missing service. 2. One of the services monitored bysystem-config-usersis not installed. As a hunch, search your package repo formate-polkit

I just had the same return when installing deluged on arch, I typed:
systemctl start deluged
I tried with sudo and it worked fine. Seems to be a group permissions issue.
All I did was enable permissions for my user account and then typed:
sudo systemctl start deluged
worked like a charm... hope this helps!

It's probably complaining that you don't have Polkit set up which you would need to allow non-user systemctl without root privileges. Just a guess though

Since I can't tell what services are being enumerated, I can't tell you which package to install. The error is not caused by policykit, but by one of the services policykit is attempting to load. XFCE has this issue with

Is there a way to monitor what services policykit is using or attempting to use?

Not that I know of. Pre-systemd systems use policykit/consolekit in conjuction with Dbus to enforce login permissions. This leads to two possibilities. 1. The user you're logged in as is not a member of
some group, andsome grouphas permission to access the missing service. 2. One of the services monitored bysystem-config-usersis not installed. As a hunch, search your package repo formate-polkit– eyoung100
