1.1.1 seems to mount and unmount properly, but the notifications are gone after this update. Reverting to 0.6.4 solves the problem, but pulls in dev-python/notify-python-0.1.1-r3. Some googling revealed that udiskie-1.1.1 no longer depends on it, though. The tty is niosy upon login with this message: Could not find any typelib for Notify Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python2.7/udiskie", line 9, in <module>

I took this question to the dev on github: https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie/issues/47 We seem to have found the issue. To make matters short, My machine has USE="-introspection" globally, as I don't use gnome, only xmonad WM. So libnotify is built without introspection. When it is built this way, it does not provide the following two files: /usr/lib64/girepository-1.0/Notify-0.7.typelib /usr/share/gir-1.0/Notify-0.7.gir Adding the introspection use flag in as a per-package flag in package.use solves the issue, allows the tray icon and the notifications, and eliminates the noisy tty messages. Perhaps the ebuild should be adjusted to make libnotify (+introspection) a requirement if notifications are desired? I may be in the minority with -introspection set globally, but people should have the choice in a case like this.
