[Bug 1325708] Re: Error in `/usr/sbin/gpartedbin': malloc(): smallbin double linked list corrupted: 0x000000000107d210

Hello, Curtis.
> GParted currently only works with partitions on partitioned devices.
As it checked all my FAT32 USB pendrives without crashing on Ubuntu 12.04.4, this suggests that the current behaviour is some kind of regression. Correct?
Cheers,
Karl

Hello, Phillip.
> Would you be able to test the version in my ppa and see if that fixes this?
Thanks a lot for chiming in.
I assume the PPA is this one: ppa:psusi/ppa (https://launchpad.net/~psusi/+archive/ppa)
And the version to test then will be this one: gparted 	0.18.0-1.ppa0 	for Trusty Tahr (uploaded 8 hours ago) 

Yes, I will install and test this gparted version on my Trusty Tahr x64
as soon as I can and give feedback, of course. Guess this will be some
time on Wednesday, 04-June-2014.

Cheers,
Karl

Title:
  Error in `/usr/sbin/gpartedbin': malloc(): smallbin double linked list
  corrupted: 0x000000000107d210

Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Launched gparted and tried to do an fsck on a FAT32 formatted external USB pandrive, device /dev/sdb, partition /dev/sdb1.
  As soon as i clicked [Apply] to actually run the fsck job, gparted closed and in the terminal window from which I had launched "sudo gparted" the following error message was displayed:

  *** Error in `/usr/sbin/gpartedbin': malloc(): smallbin double linked list corrupted: 0x000000000107d210 ***
  Aborted (core dumped)

  This crash is reproducible at will.

  The pnedrive itself is all right, so is the filesystem on it.
  sudo fsck -V -f /dev/sdb1 as well as
  sudo dosfsck -v /dev/sdb1
  both work correctly.
