[plasmashell] [Bug 521656] Mounting LUKS-encrypted disks sometimes requires the root password in addition to the encryption password

--- Comment #7 from r...@alum.mit.edu ---
The polkit rule referenced does appear to have resolved the problem for me
(although I still need to retest on my second system), but it doesn't answer
why this happens with only one of the four drives I mount for backup purposes,
and a different one each time.  If I run `mount` before providing the root
password, it shows the other three already mounted.

The instructions are to create /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d//00-udisks.rules as
follows:

---

// Allow user to mount devices without authentication; anything else is too
annoying.

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if ((action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount-system" ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount") && subject.local &&
subject.active) {
        return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});
