It’s getting tedious to put in my password every time I open YaST, I know what I’m doing and since I’m the only one who uses my computer the security risk is something I’m willing to take. I found an Ubuntu forum post but the solution didn’t work for me. Any ideas?

      This is the only clean and correct answer.

      The PAM configs are like rulesets that are applied in order and for a program. You can find them under /etc/pam.d (at least on distros using systemd I guess). There you just need to put something along the lines of

      auth required pam_permit.so

      at the very beginning of the polkit named file and it should work. Verify it is tho.
