[Bug 1435430] Re: Gparted crashes when running fsck on fat32 partition

[Curtis Gedak]

No worries Phillip.  We all get busy from time to time.  :-)

Steps to reproduce the crash are included in the upstream bug report.  'Still it is always good to have the original reporter confirm if the problem is resolved.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735669#c4

If it helps to get the patches accepted, these patches have already been
included in some other GNU/Linux distributions, such as Fedora and Arch
Linux.

Title:
  Gparted crashes when running fsck on fat32 partition

Status in gparted package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I runned:
  kdesudo "gparted /dev/sdb"

  /dev/sdb is a usb memory stick with only one partition (sdb) which is formatted as fat32.
  In gparted I selected the partition (which was not mounted) and select from the context menu "check" and afterwards apllied the operation.

  Gparted reproducibly crashes on applying this change.
