[Bug 1029149] Re: gparted automatically starts scanning all devices slowly and never completing the task

[Phillip Susi]

The cache is supposed to be built as udev spawns blkid on newly detected
hardware.

What doesn't make sense is that blkid appears to hang when gparted runs
it, but not when run by hand.

Title:
  gparted automatically starts scanning all devices slowly and never
  completing the task

Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1) Ubuntu 12.10 Alpha3 i386 (Live USB stick)
  2) gparted 0.12.1-1
  3) I expected to open gparted completing the system scan in a matter of seconds.
  4) When opened gparted the scanning all devices is never completed. The scanning all devices is extremely slow. It takes approximatetly 8 seconds for the orange indicator to move from left to right or right to left.
