[Solved] Can't mount internal, or external, partitions in Thunar.

Hello.

After my most recent full system update, I seem to e missing the ability to mount partitions, and drives, through Thunar.

I'm running a minimal Openbox, with Thunar, desktop.

I haven't uninstalled anything, and here's my '/etc/xdg/openbox/environment' file with the settings I used.

#
# Set system-wide environment variables here for Openbox
# User-specific variables should be placed in $HOME/.config/openbox/environment
#

# To set your language for displaying messages and time/date formats, use the following:
#LANG=en_CA.UTF8

# To set your keyboard layout, you need to modify your X config:
# http://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+set+keyboard+layout+xorg

# User added
if which dbus-launch >/dev/null && test -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS"; then
       eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
fi

Yes, dbus is still enabled in the daemons, and I have gvfs installed.

EDIT;
Bit by bit, I started to try reinstalling all the auto-mount related packages unsuccessfully, but then I got impatient.

I probably should have done it sequentially, but I forced reinstalled (pacman -Sf *) these dbus packages. After doing those, everything is back to normal.

 dbus-core-1.4.16-1-x86_64
 dbus-1.4.16-1-x86_64
 dbus-glib-0.98-1-x86_64
