Package: udisks Version: 1.0.4-2 Severity: normal File: udisks-daemon -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
udisks-daemon(8) states udisks-daemon provides the org.freedesktop.UDisks service on the system message bus. Users or administrators should never need to start this daemon as it will be automatically started by dbus-daemon(1) whenever an application calls into the org.freedesktop.UDisks service. However, this does not consider the situation when *nothing* ever calls into the org.freedesktop.UDisks service, a condition which is perfectly normal on any non-desktop (or even non-gnome?) system. On such systems, udisks-daemon will not run. And since partition scanning now is left up to udisks-daemon, this means that the partitions of e.g. newly attached USB disks are not automatically detected. There are a number of workarounds, like just firing up udisk(1) which will trigger udisks-daemon to start, or running partprobe(8) manually after attaching a new disk. But I still want to report this as a bug, since it represents a usability regression from squeeze.
