usb-storage tests fail in quantal because udisks is not installed

[Jeff Lane ]

Installed Quantal server 64bit, then installed checkbox-certification-server from the PPA. Noticed after a test run that usb/storage-preinserted failed, even though I had a Key inserted that is accessible.

Turns out the error is due to udisks not being installed:

bladernr@clarence:~$ dpkg -l |grep -i udisks
ii libudisks2-0 1.98.0-2 GObject based library to access udisks2
bladernr@clarence:~$ apt-cache policy udisks
udisks:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 1.0.4-6
  Version table:
     1.0.4-6 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages

Here's the traceback:

Actually we should use UDisks2 - although I guess the easier way for us might be to install udisks itself, but I think we should go with what Ubuntu uses
