+Copy script files

+The openvpn invocation expects some files to be in place. If you have not installed `leap-client` from a debian package, you must copy these files manually::

+In linux, we are using ``policykit`` to be able to run openvpn without root privileges, and a policy file is needed to be installed for that to be possible.
The setup script tries to install the policy file when installing the client system-wide, so if you have installed the client in your global site-packages at least once it should have copied this file for you.
If you *only* are running the client from inside a virtualenv, you will need to copy this file by hand::
$ sudo cp pkg/linux/polkit/net.openvpn.gui.leap.policy /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/

- on QObjects. Investigate this.
