[Bug 1076970] [NEW] org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply when erasing a pendrive

[Andreas Hasenack]

Public bug reported:

I fire up the usb startup disk creator, insert a pendrive. It's
recognized. It doesn't have enough space.

I click "erase". It starts to do something, the LED on the pendrive blinks a few times and I see a spinning wheel on the "Erasing" button. After a while, a big error message pops up:
"""
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
