Description Lucian Muresan 2011-01-14 12:21:45 UTC

sys-fs/udisks-glue may be a nice automounter for users who already removed hal / halevt from their systems and are using either just console, or window managers without automount capabilities / utilities (such as for a HTPC with stripped down X-bloat for example, with fluxbox at most). But well, the current ebuild of udisks-glue comes without a gentoo service script and also without a sample configuration file (which should actually provided by upstream).

I created such a config file based on the example from the man page, and also a gentoo script and corresponding modified ebuild, others may find this useful, too.

Reproducible: Always

config file

just a quick shot from the man page

gentoo script

tried to write it with start-stop-daemon calls, but did not manage to get it running because of misbehavior of udisks-glue's pidfile option

updated ebuild

also displays some info after installation, to inform the user about the service script which can be added to the default runlevel

config file

mounting with the pmount utility instead of udisks seems to work better

uodated ebuild with pmount USE & dependency

mounting with the pmount seems to work better, therefore optional pmount runtime dependency

I don't use udisks-glue in this way and have no plans in maintaining this in Portage, sorry.  Thanks for the time to put these here though.
All you need is "man udisks-glue" to make your own configuration choices (as you apparently did :-). I'm not looking to make udisks-glue out-of-box experience, for that we have apps like sys-fs/udiskie.
