Public bug reported:

If I issue "udisksctl dump" and then issue "udisksctl info" for one of
the objects in the dump, I get an error message. For instance:

$ udisksctl info --object-path
/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q

(udisksctl info:4995): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_object_manager_get_object: 
assertion 'g_variant_is_object_path (object_path)' failed
Error looking up object with path 
/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q

This is confusing.

It turns out that object paths must be relative to
/org/freedesktop/UDisks2. For instance:

$ udisksctl info --object-path 
drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q
/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q:
  org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Drive:
[snip]

I don't know if this is a bug in the executable or in the man page. In
either case, I suggest it would be very helpful to state in udisksctl(1)
that relative object paths must/can (whichever it is) be used.
