The problem with FC37 is that polkit has been updated to produce an unexpected version number:

old Fedora Core 36:
$ pkcheck –version
pkcheck version 0.120

new Fedora Core 37:
$ pkcheck –version
pkcheck version 121

Because of this, the extraction of the polkit version at line 16260 of /usr/NX/scripts/setup/nxnode fails:

polkit_version=$(${PKCHECKCOMMAND} –version | ${CUTCOMMAND} -d “.” -f 2)
