There are a few bugreports that have been reported against the device notifier and that are indeed mostly relevant to solid-udisks https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=270490 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274982 which are indeed related to the fix to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267398 and in general to the udisks teardown routine, which appears to have some issues; Would it be possible to coordinate some tests among us using different removable devices to see if the first two bugs can be reproduced? Apparently there are issues when deciding if and how a device should be ejected on unmount. At the moment the fix to bug 267398 forces basically all devices with a valid parent device to be ejected, even if they don't require so, since apparently most devices don't set the "DriveIsEjectable" property when they should. This causes bug 270490. Something related should indeed cause bug 274982. I don't believe the current approach (eject anyways) is correct, if the device doesn't set the property correctly, there should be a udev rule to fix that instead, pretty much as we solvedthe eSATA business.
