[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#568310: consolekit: Please upgrade severity: .svn directory causes "Not Authorized" failures.

Package: consolekit
Version: 0.4.1-3
Severity: normal

The presence of .svn directories does not just result in a message
being logged. As documented in the thread below, its presence in
/etc/ConsoleKit/seats.d causes the automounting of USB devices and
CD/DVDs to fail with a message "Not Authorized".

http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg1868909.html

This behaviour was easily reproducible on my system. Users on my system
were unable to automount camera's or DVD until I removed the offending
directory.

Please consider a severity upgrade to important.

Best regards,
Marco
