Description:

Solid actions do not work for some type of devices (like, for example, optical) since KDE SC 4.10. The culprit seems to be upstream changing from udisks to udisks2. I made the package myself with the following option -DWITH_SOLID_UDISKS2=OFF and now everything seems to work just fine.

I know this is an upstream bug, but since KDE SC 4.10 supports both, I wanted to ask to change this package to use udisk2 for the time being until better support is added for udisks2.



Additional info:
* package version(s) 4.10.0-2
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

Insert media, there is no option to read it (k3b, kaffeine, etc.). You just get a doplhin action (even for blank disks!!)
This task depends upon

udisks2 has several improvements, then downgrade to udisks1 is not an option for me.
Please report this missing feature upstream.

I agree with you about your preference on udisks2 over udidks and I will file a bug report upstream in order to get it solved.

That said, udisks2 support on KDE SC 4.10.0 should be considered beta at the moment (that is why filing a bug report upstream is the right choice). Please consider this: the reason why udisks(2) is a dependency is _solid_. To my knowledge there is no other component in KDE that requires udisks(2). Then choosing udisks2 over udisks, which breaks the only KDE component requiring udisks(2), does not seem the right choice for the time being.

Please reconsider your decision.

It is working now after updating to kdelibs 4.10.1.

You can mark this as solved. Thank you.
