[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#577578: udisks-daemon: polling CDROM DVD force tray to close

[Gilles Mocellin]

Package: udisks
Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: normal

I use KDE, but as soon as I open a GTK dialog, like in Iceweasel to save
a file, these processes are launched :

root     30295     1  0 22:09 ?        00:00:00
/usr/lib/udisks/udisks-daemon
root     30296 30295  0 22:09 ?        00:00:00 udisks-daemon: polling
/dev/pktcdvd/0

And my CD tray does not want to stay open anymore.

If I kill the polling udisks-daemon or launch in a console :
# sudo udisks --inhibit-polling /dev/pktcdvd/0
The CD tray can stay open.
But it's not so practical, udisks stay in foreground, waiting for
Ctrl-C...

So :
- Why theses process are launched only with gnome/gtk file dialogs ?
- There will be/is a way to disable polling (#559562), but is it the
  solution, its great to have the CD mounted as soon as it's closed...
