Hope this might be a nice change for once, getting a bug+fix in one... ;)

As some may know, since it's recent update ivman fails to mount any devices.

This is not due to the hal+dbus updates as some thought.

Ivman now needs a user, 'ivman' and a group 'plugdev' so it can drop to lower priviledges, so as not to run as root.

Ivman depends on pmount for certain tasks, and this has also caused ivman to fail, as arch's pmount is out of date, currently is 0.7.1, latest is 0.9.3.

I have flagged pmount out of date.

To fix ivman, make it create a user, ivman and group, plugdev.

Have Fun,

iphitus

reassigned to new maintainer of ivman

James: it's you now to decide if you want to add a new user/group for it
