I don't use pkexec. Didn't like it so kicked it to the curb. I launch synaptic, gparted etc from launchers in the panel using gksu.

You must be root to copy files to system directories. (or use sudo) But as you discovered, it will work anywhere.
Raining here, too. I'm on the other side of the ocean. I would tell you to stay above water, but I guess it doesn't work that way where you are. Stay dry, anyway.
