Re the udisk problem I see a little bit clearer: it looks as if udisk2
- does not work when I chroot (as it happens) from a Mageia 1 system into cauldron (beta1)
- does work flawlessly when I boot into the cauldron system; but this cauldron system is really a minimum system, no desktop, no gtk (I want to use it to clarify a BuildRequires problem): it only gives me a command-line console, chroot would be much more comfortable (having filesystems mounted on both systems and having all the comfort of guis for editing and consulting documents on the base system).
I guess (can somebody confirm, please), that it must be possible to do unrestricted urpmi with chroot (both DVD and remote repositories) and that this is probably a plain bug: udisk2 does not work with chroot. I had done a first try (before I came to this clear working hypothesis) and had installed - udisk (udisk2? I do not remember) - to no avail. But that had, trying what-if stuff, gone a little out of hand, and I now started on a new minimum system.
I just tried to do a chroot into my old Mageia 1 Alpha file-system - which is a full install, with desktop and all and which runs OK: same udisk error message there, hence probably not a problem specific to minimum installs.
All this is quite time-consuming, booting all over the place, remaking systems, I am a little bit frustrated. But, before crying "bug" I should still repeat the entire thing once more.
How does this relate to bugzilla #4645 - do you want to have this discussion there?
