bug#56383: Neither Gnome nor udisksctl can mount an nfs filesystem

[Alexandre Hannud Abdo]

Ni! Connecting an external USB hard drive with an NTFS partition fails to mount 
it on both Gnome (Nautilus) and manually through udisksctl.

On nautilus, it shows the partition but clicking on it pops a window: "wrong fs 
type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb2, missing codepage or helper program, or 
other error".

I've managed to successfully mount it with my non-root user using udisksctl:

$ udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdb2 -t auto

Strangely, "-t ntfs" didn't work, but "-t auto" did the trick. Even when it 
worked, the drive is mounted without permissions for my user (uid 1000), though I could copy files 
with sudo.

System logs show:

Jul  2 12:45:44 localhost vmunix: [16392.469209] ntfs: volume version 3.1.
Jul  2 12:45:44 localhost shepherd[1]: [dbus-daemon]

My config.scm declares :

and also

 (packages (append (list

                    gvfs
