[Bug 945433] [NEW] gparted crashes on scanning GPT formatted drive

[Jakey_TheSnake]

Public bug reported:

Gparted (0.11.0-1) crashes whilst scanning drives when opened normally.
I opened up terminal and specified each device in turn - it can scan -
and indeed work normally with - all of my drives (2 external, 1
internal, all NTFS formatted) bar one (internal) which has a Guided
Partition Table rather than MBR, and two partitions: HFS+ and NTFS.

Running gparted from a 12.04 beta Live CD. I ran it earlier from within
Parted Magic and it worked just fine. I'll check the version used by
that Live CD later and report back.
