How does one exclude a package from PolKit?

In the undermentioned, I’ve been instructed to disable PolKit for a specific package:

However, how can I accomplish this?

It looks like launching with --disable-polkit would do it globally with pcscd (man).

This implies that flag can be set with an env like pcscd_flags="--disable-polkit" (possibly in put in pcscd’s conf?)

@Espionage724, thank you. Does that mean that it’s application-specific?

If so, in retrospect, I suppose one wouldn’t centrally define which binaries to block PolKit DBus calls to, and expect them to sensibly degrade…
