pmount may be what you want.
I've not used it on devuan (or debian), but it works well on my
gentoo workstation.
I've used it very happily for years on ubuntu and debian, and have
just installed it on devuan ascii. If someone can drop a hint on how
to find out the device of the usb stick I've just plugged in (it
isn't automounting), then I expect it will be just as good on our
distro.
I have a little application which monitors hotplug devices and
lists the partitions on these devices which have a filesystem. When it
is started, it just scans /dev, and then gets notified of any change
through inotify-wait. It is a command-line applications with extremely
basic TUI functionnality: everytime there is an update, it clears the
xterm in which is is running and displays the status on the fresh screen.
It is the current state of a project intended to display the
hotplug partitions in a GUI window and allow mount/umount/eject on click.
I wrote it in Tcl because I wanted to use Tk as the graphical
toolkit. This is my first program in Tcl and I have a hard time learning
Tk, and I don't work very hard on it :-)
The current working application can be run in a small xterm to
monitor hotplug devices. It runs forever untill you kill it. It displays
the device names the fstypes and the labels. It also can display the
mountpoint but I don't know any means to notify it when a partition is
mounted/unmounted.
It runs as two processes connected by a pipe, but It is made of one
single file (192 lines) I can send on demand. It depends on packages tcl
and inotify-tools It could easily be hacked to make an automounter, but
I didn't do it because automounters break the integrity of the
filesystems by principle.
