Ok. A comment just before the _INSTALL_STAGING line would be useful,
then, because for a "utils" package, we don't necessarily expect to
have a library in it.

It was a looong time ago. I think I managed to get udisks to build, but
I hadn't had the time to do some real testing with it: I was first
doing some testing of polkit, which is a dependency of udisks.

I've put online the 3 patches I had done at that time (note that they
are old: they still use the old AUTOTARGETS macro name), see:
