[Bug 851289] [NEW] Unable to mount any device or partition as non-root user

 

Public bug reported:

I am not sure if I am filing this against the correct app.

With today's Oneiric update, I am suddenly no longer able to mount any
of my partitions or external drives / devices. I get the following error
message: "Unable to mount XYZ - Not authorized" (where XYZ is the name
of the device or partition).

I am able to mount those devices as root just fine, however.
