Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gvfs
Problem: When multiple users are logged in, and the console user plugs in an external USB drive, GNOME randomly selects a user to automount the drive on, instead of the console user. In multi-partition drives, different partitions are mounted to different users. The console user receives a dialog box with error in the style of "/dev/sdf3 is busy" whenever a partition is mounted to a non-console user. Expected behavior: The system should either mount the partition read/write to all users, or should mount the partition only to the console user. It should not mount partitions to random users on an exclusive basis.
