Description urcindalo 2012-10-09 10:02:00 UTC

After the upgrade to dbus-1.6.8 from 1.6.2 I can no longer automount my internal partitions without being asked for a password. I use a stable amd64 box. 
It used to work with this setup:

======
lab 50-local.d # ll /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/ 
total 8 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 128 oct  9 11:54 99-my-polkit-udisks.pkla 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 206 feb 10  2012 10-org-freedesktop-network-manager-settings.pkla 
lab 50-local.d # cat 99-my-polkit-udisks.pkla 
[udisks full access] 
Identity=unix-group:wheel 
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.* 
ResultAny=yes 
ResultInactive=no 
ResultActive=yes
======

However, it seems now the rules in the 99-my-polkit-udisks.pkla file are no longer honored. Previously the working file name was my-polkit-udisks.pkla, but I have even prefixed it with "99-" to try to make it work, just in case. 
Am I missing something? I too re-emerged udisks, to no avail.

I downgraded to dbus-1.6.2 and the problem persists, so dbus is not to blame, at least alone.

This problem also happens on my laptop at home. I just checked. So now I have two different boxes screwed up by some dbus/udisks/policy change.

:roll: Asking a question on the forum requires waiting a reasonable period of time for an answer afterwards.
Also, bugzilla is not a support forum.
