Bug Description

I found a bug (that seems to happen to other users, but they all just go and use GParted for their task, so noone reported it :) in gnome-disk-utility and posted it upstream https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679547 , but it seems version shipped with Ubuntu 12.04 is not supported anymore.

I'd suggest to update gnome-disk-utility to supported branch.

Thanks!
