Bug ID: 378321 Summary: device notifier not mounting device: problem with polkit Product: plasmashell Version: 5.9.4 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Device Notifier Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: olivier.carton....@gmail.com Target Milestone: 1.0 When a plug USB key, the devices notifier pops up. If I click to "Open in file manager", the device is not mounted and Dolphin is not launched. If I click on the small button of the right, the device is then mounted. I I think that the problem is more or less related to the interaction with polkit. I have traced the ruled fired by polkit (see below). The main difference is that in the former case local=false active=false while in the latter case local=true active=true There is also another problem but I do not know whether it is related or not. Even when the device is mounted, if I click to "Open in file manager", Dolphin is not launched. # Rule fired by polkit when clicking "Open in file manager" Mar 31 09:26:45 salto polkitd[2604]: /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-debug.rules:7: action=[Action id='org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount' id.version='Joliet Extension' id.usage='filesystem' drive.serial='7AA3BA73' id.label='neon user 20170119-10:37' partition.flags='0x00000080' polkit.gettext_domain='udisks2' drive.removable.bus='usb' drive='JetFlash Transcend 16GB (/dev/sdb1)' partition.number='1' id.uuid='2017-01-19-10-37-42-00' partition.uuid='036e0dfc-01' drive.vendor='JetFlash' device='/dev/sdb1' id.type='iso9660' partition.type='0x00' polkit.message='Authentication is required to mount $(drive)' drive.revision='8.07' drive.model='Transcend 16GB' drive.removable.media='thumb' drive.removable='true'] Mar 31 09:26:45 salto polkitd[2604]: /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-debug.rules:8: subject=[Subject pid=2893 user='carton' groups=users,wheel,video,plugdev seat='' session='' local=false active=false] # Rule fired by polkit when clicking the small button on the right.
