apk-polkit-server spam makes logread unusable
Describe your issue
What's the expected behaviour?
I keep having phosh crash since 24.1, but apk-polkit-server fills logread with "Trying to get details of package ..." spam. That seems slightly unfortunate.
What's the current behaviour?
logread filled to the full length back with apk-polkit-server spam, messages from minutes ago are pushed out of buffer

It literally says "Trying to get package details of ..." and then some package, and repeats that for a lot of packages. Once it reoccurs I'll copy a longer section of it. For some reason, I haven't noticed this happening since the time I made this issue.
I think the upgrade temporarily stopped it at the time, but if e.g. upcoming upgrades are connected, it would be nice if
logreadremained usable for other purposes even when an upgrade is scheduled. (Sorry if it's not, in that case ignore this remark.)
I have since encountered the crash again and managed to collect some basic info about it: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/1209
The apk-polkit-server spam actually hasn't repeated since, I will update this issue here once it does.
I managed to capture a longer excerpt:
