STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. make sure "Enable automatic mounting of removable media" option is unchecked in System Settings > Removable Storage > Removable Devices kcm 2. open Dolphin 3. right-click on an ISO image, choose "Mount ISO" OBSERVED RESULT The entry of the ISO image appears in Places panel of Dolphin, under "Devices", but the ISO image wasn't mounted. It only was "inserted". EXPECTED RESULT a feature called "Mount ISO" should do what it says: mount the ISO image SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.73.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2
Hello, Currently, this is the expected behaviour of the Mount ISO plugin. In order to mount the ISO file to a directory, you have to manually click on the new entry created in Dolphin. However, I completely agree that the default behaviour should be to automatically mount the ISO file to a directory but it is a little bit trickier to do. I have already proposed a merge request to do this: https://invent.kde.org/sdk/dolphin-plugins/-/merge_requests/8 but it is a little bit hacky and I'm not sure the maintainers will agree to do it that way.
Git commit 2714be04b49d4340c5f23746672eb6a12711f9f6 by Elvis Angelaccio, on behalf of Kwon-Young Choi. Committed on 03/10/2020 at 18:10. Pushed by elvisangelaccio into branch 'master'. Automatically mount directory after attaching loop device After attaching a loop device, the device needs to be mounted on directory to be accessible. This can be done manually by clicking on the newly appeared device in dolphin side bar. This patch automatize this by automatically mounting the loop device to a directory using Solid after attaching the loop device. The way this is done a little bit hacky since the plugin needs to wait for UDisks2 to send a signal to Solid to update its device database. The wait is done using a nested QEventLoop by waiting on Solid::DeviceNotifier::deviceAdded signal.
