As announced elsewhere, udisks is simply DeviceKit-disks with a name
change. FYI, there will be a udisks 1.0.0 release in time for
gnome-disk-utility 2.30 - until then, people can use git master or
recent distros like Rawhide or whatever. Also, GVfs master still works
with gnome-disk-utility 2.28 if you don't want any of the new stuff yet.
