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

[Curtis Gedak]

@Skyman,

If you want to test to see if Mike's patch fixes the problem, the easiest way is to try booting from the latest GParted Live 0.22.0-1.
http://gparted.org/livecd.php
  
The GParted Live image contains a custom parted/libparted that includes Mike's patch.

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.
