[Mageia-dev] Automount of CD/DVD seems broken

Sometime over the last couple of days, loaded DVDs are no longer being 
mounted under /media.

KDE recognizes the loaded DVD, and brings up the panel popup that gives 
you suggested actions.  However, neither "df" nor "mount" shows the disk 
to be mounted.

LXDE does not seem to recognize the disk at all, and does not launch 
either the "what should I do" prompt or the file manager display of the 
folders on the disk.

This system is updated with cauldron several times a day, and automount 
was working last Thursday/Friday (Jan19/Jan20).  It was not working on 
Jan23.

No messages in syslog or messages reacting to the load of the disk at 
all.  This was not the case on Jan19.:

Just to be certain, I updated cauldron just before sending this, and 
rebooted.  Same problem.

Any idea what happened ?
