RC2 USB won't Automount

I have just installed a new machine with RC2.  It doesn't auto mount USB.  What do I need to do to get it to automount?

I'm sure a previous install did (though it may have stopped a while ago with an update - or it could have been that the old hardware was failing).  I do not recall having to switch on USB automount in the past, but I may have.

I can mount usb with mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usbdrive so it isn't a hardware issue.

Thanks

Re: RC2 USB won't Automount

Problem after updating:

When gvfs is updated on an existing install automount stops working and internal drive icons don't appear in pcmanfm.

The problem is caused by parts of gvfs being removed and added into new packages which don't exist on installed system.

Commit split gvfs: http://hg.slitaz.org/wok/rev/96fd065ed4ea

Commit adds required additional packages to flavors:

Installing gvfs-fuse,gvfs-udisks2 restores automount and internal drive icons which mount on click in pcmanfm.
