@Curtis:

Thanks for the tip, last night was the first time I tried to launch gparted
in the terminal and the first time I saw that error . . . I did try to
re-install gparted several times, but terminal reported "already latest
version" . . . so I'll try your suggestion and see what happens . . . and
I'll post back when that is done.
