Title:
  usb-creator-gtk segfaults every time I try making a bootable USB key

Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The latest frustration:
  usb-creator-gtk segfaults every time I try making  a bootable 12.04 usb key.  I need to install and boot both desktop and server versions of Precise on my test machines in order to do my work, and usb-creator is a gate that is causing me to not be able to do that work.  Every time (I'm currently running Quantal, but the same types of issues happened when I was running Precise as well) I try creating a 12.04.1 or 12.04.2 bootable USB key, creator segfaults at some point, leaving me with a half-finished usb key that is not bootable, and sometimes not umountable, and a mounted ISO image in /tmp. 

  In some cases, I've tried over and over to get a working USB key, only
  to find that I end up with the same ISO mounted once for each attempt
  in /tmp.
