+Great, no need to do bug filing. I spent this afternoon with an 
+additional serious problem that concerns the udisks daemon. It makes 
+locally building packages on a chroot cauldon partition (Mageia 2 beta 
+1) very diffcult or impossible.
+
+Doing urpmi on the chrooted system (with packages also to be fetched 
+from the install DVD), the install fails with "Udisks daemon 
+(udisks-daemon) is not running or not ready". I have seen several 
+discussions mentioning rather similar problems, but I am not sure how 
+these problems relate to each other.
+
+To a certain degree, using rpm -i is a - rather clumsy - workaround, 
+When I need to install several tens of packages with dependencies from 
+both the DVD and remote repositories, things become very awkward. This 
+might be related to bugzilla #4649, but I still need to explore 
+(installing xrandr does not help).
