[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1067876] Re: Missing "Safely Remove Drive" Option from Context-Menu
The "safe remove" functionality was removed from udisks2, and it's not planned to bring it back. It caused too much trouble with e. g. devices which are internally wired to an USB port, and you could never use them again until after a reboot. Also, having two options was a constant source of confusion. So I'm afraid this is "wontfix" from the distro side. ** Changed in: gvfs (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: udisks2 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067876 Title: Missing "Safely Remove Drive" Option from Context-Menu Status in GVFS: New Status in Unity: Invalid Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “udisks2” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: In Ubuntu 12.04, I could right-click on my usb-external-harddrive's Unity-Task-Bar icon and select "Safely Remove".
