Bug description:
  TEST CASE:

  1. Start gparted from a terminal (starting from the menu works too):
  2. The gparted window appears and gparted is scanning the hard disks
  3. The gparted window disappears again and the terminal contains the following crash output:

  =====================
  libparted : 2.3
  ======================

  glibmm-ERROR **: 
  unhandled exception (type std::exception) in signal handler:

  aborting...

  4. Update to the fixed package and try again
  5. Gparted finishes scanning without crash and is ready for use
