Bug Description
I was creating all the partition types I could on a GPT disk, to check that some software I'm working on would handle them all right. I could create MINIX partition, but when it finished, and rescanned partitions, it showed an alert next to the partition name, and the info said it could not access the partition. It hints that util-linux might be needed, but I already had it at the latest version.
In fact the partition mounts just fine and I can create and use files in it, so I suspect an error in the gparted (or parted) scanning code.
