Had the same bug, and this thread helped point me in the right direction. I'm not sure if my response is appropriate, as I'm sure more than a handful of less technical users will find this thread (it's the first few hits for 'gparted crash' search results.) If not, I apologize in advance. I solved the issue by using git to pull the current version of gparted, and building it. From a stock Maverick desktop 64 bit, system, I ran (as root):
# aptitude install git gnome-common libglib2.0.dev uuid-dev libparted- dev libgtkmm-2.4-dev Then changed to the /tmp directory, ran # git clone git://git.gnome.org/gparted # make # make install -- gparted crash at start: glibmm-ERROR ** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/617885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
