[Bug 1279987] Re: usb-creator-gtk crashed with TypeError in __call__(): first argument must be the method signature string: GLib.Variant('a{sv}', {})

[Ron]

I tried with another usb stick and it worked. I tried the original usb 
stick again and got the error again, other than that problem, the usb 
stick works fine, i.e., storing and retrieving files.
