Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: util-linux
This could be a one-time bug, but I thought of reporting it. blkid did not list ANY of my devices.
I was using gnome-terminal.

blkid: invalid option -- '-'
blkid from util-linux-ng 2.17.2 (libblkid 2.17.0, 22-Mar-2010)
Usage:
blkid -L <label> | -U <uuid>
blkid [-c <file>] [-ghlLv] [-o format] [-s <tag>]
[-t <token>] [-w <file>] [dev ...]
blkid -p [-O <offset>] [-S <size>] [-o format] <dev> [dev ...]
Options:
-c <file> cache file (default: /etc/blkid.tab, /dev/null = none)
-h print this usage message and exit
-g garbage collect the blkid cache
-o <format> output format; can be one of:
value, device, list, udev or full; (default: full)
-s <tag> show specified tag(s) (default show all tags)
-t <token> find device with a specific token (NAME=value pair)
-l lookup the the first device with arguments specified by -t
-L <label> convert LABEL to device name
-U <uuid> convert UUID to device name
-v print version and exit
-w <file> write cache to different file (/dev/null = no write)
<dev> specify device(s) to probe (default: all devices)
Low-level probing options:
-p switch to low-level mode (bypass cache)
-S <bytes> overwrite device size
-O <bytes> probe at the given offset
-u <list> filter by "usage" (e.g. -u filesystem,raid)
forger at home-desktop:~$ blkid -l
The lookup option requires a search type specified using -t
