Thanks buddy. I was having a lot trouble trying to figure this one out. I use udiskctl status a lot. And I was missing the auto mounting of disks at /run/media//

I was having this problem when trying to use Synaptic on a Raspberry Pi. Thanks for the 1 line c/p solution, you probably saved me some hours and frus frustration.

I got the same error message, also after a system migration. For me /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper was in the wrong group. Seems the root cause was a mismatch between uids/gids on my system and on the live system I was using for the transfer. There are a bunch of other files with the same problem but the dbus helper causes the most problems.
To prevent the problem (at least my version of it) you can use the –numeric-owner option if migrating with tar (or –numeric-ids with rsync).

Great, this post saved my day. Reinstalling dbus fixed the problem for me.
