Description:
thunar-volman doesn't work properly unless gvfs is installed. All devices that I have tried won't automount without it. Therefore gvfs must be added to thunar-volman's dependency list. If there are devices that automount fine without gvfs then it must at least be added to its optional dependencies. |
This task depends upon

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Additional comments about closing: gvfs is already an optional dep and well described in main thunar pkg.

pacman -Si thunar | grep Opt
Optional Deps : gvfs: for trash support, mounting with udisk and remote filesystems
edit: see the README of thunar-volman: http://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar-volman/tree/README
thunar-volman depends on the following packages:
- Thunar 1.1.1 or above - exo 0.5.0 or above - glib 2.18.0 or above - GTK+ 2.24.0 or above - GUDev 145 or above - libxfce4ui 4.7.0 or above - libxfce4util 4.7.0 or above - xfconf 4.7.0 or above
Do you see gvfs there? No, cause its satisfied by thunar.
This is not clear to end-users as it is now. Is it quite possible to install thunar, install volman a little later when that little print of optional dependencies in the installation output is long forgotten and then start wondering why volman doesn't do anything. And the intuitive answer is not really to go look in the optional dependencies for a parent package for a solution. No one who uses volman can use it without gvfs, so it might as well just be listed as a dependency to avoid confusion.
