I've seen this mentioned in the past, and I believe it's always boiled
down to the gnome automounter stuff. I can't offer a certain fix because
I don't run gnome (just a few of the apps). But if you can find the RPM
responsible, try an rpm -e on it to get rid of it.

Could possibly nautilus. I don't let it install unless something else
complains. If that happens, I let it install then rpm -e --nodeps the
damned thing because of other things about it I don't like.

Nautilus might not be the problem. Then again, since I don't have it
installed, that could be why I never see these errors.
