I've uploaded a SRU fix to bionic ** Description changed:
+ * Impact + + gnome-disk-utility sometime displays the wrong partitons informations + + + * Test case + + On a system with an extended partition start gparted, close it and start + gnome-disk-utility, the layout displayed should be correct + + + * Regression potential + check that partitions handling is still working correctly in g-d-u + + -------------------- + The partitions displayed by gnome-disk-utility are wrong. When i use gparted the partitions displayed are correct. The display became wrong after i deleted 1 partition from the disk using gnome-disk-utility. Here is a screenshot of the 2 tools vision of the same disk: http://pasteboard.co/PjWpqeNzi.png Here is the fdisk: hippo@hippo-camp:~$ sudo fdisk -l - [sudo] password for hippo: + [sudo] password for hippo: Disk /dev/sdc: 465,8 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x1c0966b0 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdc1 * 63 758587953 758587891 361,7G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sdc3 758589438 903041023 144451586 68,9G 5 Extended /dev/sdc5 758589440 903041023 144451584 68,9G 83 Linux - hippo@hippo-camp:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release: 16.04 gnome-disk-utility: - Installed: 3.18.3.1-1ubuntu1 - Candidate: 3.18.3.1-1ubuntu1 - Version table: - *** 3.18.3.1-1ubuntu1 500 - 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + Installed: 3.18.3.1-1ubuntu1 + Candidate: 3.18.3.1-1ubuntu1 + Version table: + *** 3.18.3.1-1ubuntu1 500 + 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status gparted: - Installed: 0.25.0-1 - Candidate: 0.25.0-1 - Version table: - *** 0.25.0-1 500 - 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + Installed: 0.25.0-1 + Candidate: 0.25.0-1 + Version table: + *** 0.25.0-1 500 + 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status I get *very nervous* when tools that have write access to partitions can't display them properly. - Good hunt Matt ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: gnome-disk-utility 3.18.3.1-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-47.68-generic 4.4.24 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-47-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sat Nov 12 12:16:39 2016 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gnome-disks InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-10-11 (31 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) SourcePackage: gnome-disk-utility UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Changed in: parted (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Triaged => Fix Committed ** Changed in: parted (Ubuntu Bionic) Assignee: (unassigned) => Sebastien Bacher (seb128) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1641308 Title: Partitions display wrong in gnome -disks - ok in gparted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parted/+bug/1641308/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
