Well, this is interesting.
It looks like Debian's new version is more than just systemd.
Trinity v14.0.2 Debian 8
When I plug in an encrypted USB disk, the password window opens as it always did, but now it's complaining about HAL not existing.
When I tried to open it through the Konqueror device view, it also failed. Attached are two screen grabs of the failures.
I'm not asking for this to be "fixed" in TDE, it seems that the underlying hardware abstraction has changed in some fundamental way. HAL isn't even in the repository for Debian 8. I expect someone will get around to harmonizing this at some point, I'm sure I'm not the only person who has encrypted external disks that used to work seamlessly.
The more things change.....

Yes, the HAL is not available in newer distributions. In TDE 14 was HAL functionality replaced by tdehwlib. However, some things still missing.

Yes, I have hit that too. This particular one and another case. I decided last night that until Jessie is release ready, and important "minor" bugs like this are ironed out, my one Jessie box is going to be Wheezy as soon as I get the time. (I nearly said "Is going back to Wheezy", but it is a new box and has never been Wheezy.)
