Description
Running pkexec should work like sudo inside a toolbox but instead it fails:
````
⬢[swick@toolbox ~]$ pkexec test
Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Exhausted all available authentication mechanisms (tried: EXTERNAL) (available: EXTERNAL)
````
Worked around this [issue in jhbuild](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/jhbuild/-/merge_requests/170) but it would be great if pkexec just worked.
