HAL leaves user-mounted removeable media mounted after user logs off

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #182056 +++ From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060210 Fedora/1.5.0.1-3 Firefox/1.5.0.1 Description of problem: If a user attaches a USB storage device (say a pen drive) the device is automatically mounted. If the user then logs off, the device is not unmounted. I see this being a danger in that a user might assume that if he logs off, he/she could just pull the pen drive out. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): hal-0.5.7-0.cvs20060213.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attach a USB storage device while logged in as a user. 2. Log out 3. At the login screen press Ctl-Alt-F1 and log in as root. Type "mount" Actual Results: Removable storage volumes remain mounted. Expected Results: Removable storage volumes shuld have been unmounted when the user who mounted them logged out. Additional info: -- Additional comment from ivazquez@ivazquez.net on 2006-02-20 00:55 EST -- hal isn't responsible for mounting/unmounting volumes, so this bug is filed in the wrong component. Please file a bug against gnome-volume-manager and/or whatever KDE package handles automounting instead. -- Additional comment from bshotts@panix.com on 2006-02-20 08:25 EST -- Refiling for component gnome-mount

David, I have the feeling this is a dupe.
Moving of FC7Target, this is a policy question that we cannot fix in time for F7.
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again.
