Oh, you can reference gvfs code for how to utilize devicekit-disks and 
gnome-disk-utility.

But I still don't undertand how a software management engine deal with 
automounter. Can you elaborate on this with some examples?

And by looking at code of HalContext.cc, there is one macro of NO_HAL seems 
created from config.h.in to disable hal at at all. So what function would I 
lose if I disable HAL from libzypp? And how to enable this macro? Sorry I did't 
know cmake.
