xfce4-mount-plugin doesn't mount NFS shares

I am using the xfce4-mount-plugin (v0.6.7) on Debian 9 stable with XFCE.

It shows all mount-points in its list as I expect - the NFs ones also. But it doesn't mount them: Clicking on an NFS-share give me a "Could not mount the device ..." (translated from German).

I have no problems mounting the same share as a normal user on bash.

Please see the /etc/exports on the NFS-server

admin@SPARKY:~$ sudo cat /etc/exports | grep Media
/Daten/Media	192.168.178.37(rw,async,all_squash,anonuid=1001,anongid=1000)

This is information from the client machine

user@TONNE:/mnt/Sparky$ sudo cat /etc/fstab | grep Media
SPARKY:/Daten/Media    /mnt/Sparky/Media    nfs    rw,noauto,user 0 0

user@TONNE:/mnt/Sparky$ ls -ld /mnt/Sparky/Media
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4,0K Okt 30 19:36 /mnt/Sparky/Media/

user@TONNE:/mnt/Sparky$ mount /mnt/Sparky/Media

user@TONNE:/mnt/Sparky$ ls -ld /mnt/Sparky/Media
drwxr-xr-x 6 1001 bluetooth 4,0K Okt 30 23:14 /mnt/Sparky/Media/

Re: xfce4-mount-plugin doesn't mount NFS shares

The problem is the same when I move the mountpoints to[tt]/media[/tt].

I will open this as a bug report if someone has an idea about it. But am I the only one who can reproduce this?
