That should
be /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/20-org.d/10-packagekit-policy.pkla,

If you read the small print, ResultActive/Inactive are described as
applying to subjects in _local_ sessions. Presumably, ResultAny covers
subjects in remote sessions (or even without sessions ?) as well.

This is a bug, I would say. The paragraph is supposed to refer to
ResultFoo, not RequireFoo. I've reported it here for you:

You really should not have polkit-config-file-validate installed. It is
part of the PolicyKit 0.9 packages that have been obsoleted by polkit.
