SDC has not worked correctly for me since the start of Quantal , still no go in raring .

[Doug McMahon (mc3man)]

The last working version in raring here was revision 398 + 400_399 diff, so something from the switch to python3 has broken

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

From a duplicate report: "Instead a visual prompt "error talking to udisks service" appears and the app terminates."
