** Description changed:

  If a USB pendrive containing an exFAT partition is connected, Ubuntu
  can't mount the partition. Test has been done on a Vivid amd64 live
  system using today's daily ISO.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  1- Insert an USB pendrive containing an exFAT partition
  2- The partition is not automatically mounted
  3- Trying to manually mount the partition via the terminal shows this output:
-     mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat'
+     mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat'
  
  Steps to fix the issue:
  1- Install packages exfat-fuse and exfat-utils
  
  exFAT pendrives are more and more common in newer devices, and this
  issue is not easily fixable by the average John Doe. We should add the
  two packages above to the seeds and grant default support to our users.
