Bug#890216: kodi-standalone: Start user daemon for auto-mount of file systems

[Ben Finney]

Source: kodi
Version: kodi-standalone: Start auto-mount daemon
Severity: minor

The ‘/usr/bin/kodi-standalone’ script starts the Kodi system, in the
absence of any way to mount external storage volumes.

This means that the Kodi application will never see
externally-connected devices, because there is nothing responding to
the device monitoring events to mount storage volumes.

Please (depend on and) start an auto-mount daemon when starting
‘kodi-standalone’.

Perhaps the ‘udevil’ <URL:https://ignorantguru.github.io/udevil/>
package (in the Debian package ‘udevil’) is useful for this, since
Kodi discussion forums sometimes recommend this.
