udiskie is a simple daemon that uses udisks to automatically mount removable storage devices.

This is a fork of udiskie by Byron Clark (http://bitbucket.org/byronclark/udiskie) enhanced to provide a system tray icon for removing devices, as well as upgrading to newer APIs

• dbus-python
• pygobject
• libnotify
• gtk3

udiskie requires permission for the org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount action. This is usually granted in sessions launched with ConsoleKit support. If run outside a desktop manager with ConsoleKit support, the permission can be granted using PolicyKit by creating a file called 10-udiskie.pkla in /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d with these contents:

[udiskie]
Identity=unix-group:storage
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount
ResultAny=yes

This configuration allows all members of the storage group to run udiskie.
