  Really?  I'm on beowulf now, and I have:

ii  udisks2        2.8.1-4      amd64        D-Bus service to access and
manipulate storage devices

Same as Debian 10 (buster):

https://packages.debian.org/stable/allpackages

udisks2 (2.8.1-4)
    D-Bus service to access and manipulate storage devices

  Latest version upstream is 2.8.4, released in Jul 22, 2019:
