Package: pmount (0.9.23-3 and others)

[ Source: pmount  ]

mount removable devices as normal user

pmount is a wrapper around the standard mount program which permits normal users to mount removable devices without a matching /etc/fstab entry. This provides a robust basis for automounting frameworks like GNOME's Utopia project and confines the amount of code that runs as root to a minimum.

If a LUKS capable cryptsetup package is installed, pmount is able to transparently mount encrypted volumes.
