STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install kdenetwork-filesharing
2. In dolphin right click a folder you wish to share, and click properties.
2. Select the 'Share' tab in the properties window.
3. Click the button to install the distro samba package.

OBSERVED RESULT

An expected polkit dialog to authorise packagekit to install the distro samba package does not appear.
The message "The samba package failed to install" is displayed instead.

EXPECTED RESULT

A polkit auth diagog should appear, and upon successful admin password entry the distro samba package should be installed and the sharing options enabled.

Can you check if pkcon does the right thing there?

Have you tried running it from a terminal? It might give some further insight of what is happening.
