Some weeks now i haven't been able to manually mount usb-sticks and similar on my system.
I have used the same and other usb-stick before without problem.
1, A "sudo mount /dev/sde1 /mnt/usb/" now gives "mount: special device /mnt/sde1 does not exist"
2. A blkid shows:
/dev/sda1: UUID="d470e1dd-1a26-4e26-8273-7d21701f4108" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sda2: UUID="B2360CD3360C9B0D" TYPE="ntfs"

/dev/sde1: LABEL="USB DISK" UUID="7C79-4A39" TYPE="vfat" # <------------ My USB partition is available here
3. It is also available as usual in cfdisk.
4. /mnt/usb has the same permission as the other - fstab-mounted partitions
"drwxr-xr-x 2 root root"
5. I have up until now tried to stay away from all the "automount" magic and various systems and dependencies for that floating around,
thus i have no udisks, udisks2 or udiskie, and no polkit and so on.
6. I am on systemd per usual main Arch-setup right now, and i run an openbox session started manually with xinit/startx.
Is there something regarding this that has changed anywhere the last couple of weeks somehwere?,
or is my use-case and setup not fitting for how something works right now,
or is it just some bug somewhere.
UPDATE - 7: I just now retried a "sudo mount" sometime later after writing this post, and now it just worked,
so it seems like something that used to happen instantly is heavily delayed?,
i would still like to learn what and be a bit wiser in the future if anyone has any ideas : )
I Have done some googling, but it haven't been able to find something helpful for my case yet, thus i post here for my fellow archers input : )

Did you type "sudo mount /mnt/sde1 /mnt/usb/"?

That's fine. i just hope i get to nail down what has changed and where.
perhaps there is not many of us not using all the auto-mounting stuff no more,
so this migh not get recognized/experienced a lot on this forum =/
