[Bug 1361594] Re: Memory corruption when runnning fs-check on a fat32-formatted partition

[riveravaldez]

The problem appears in this version:

$ apt-cache policy gparted
gparted:
  Instalados: 0.18.0-1
  Candidato:  0.18.0-1
  Tabla de versión:
 *** 0.18.0-1 0


And DOESN'T appear in this (older) one:

$ apt-cache policy gparted
gparted:
  Installed: 0.11.0-2ubuntu0.1
  Candidate: 0.11.0-2ubuntu0.1
  Version table:
 *** 0.11.0-2ubuntu0.1 0


Just in case this info is useful.

  partition

Status in gparted package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  What you expected to happen:
  I expected a sucessfull filesystem check of the fat32-partition.

  
  What happened instead:
  This:

  $ sudo gparted
  ======================
  libparted : 2.3
  ======================

  *** Error in `/usr/sbin/gpartedbin': malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000001129ea0 ***
  Aborted (core dumped)

  I started the application, chose the partition I wanted to check for errors and then started the check - and this happens, every time.
