Bug Description
Binary package hint: gparted
When i try to start gparted from console i get:

=======
libparted : 2.3
=======
glibmm-ERROR **:

I got 3 disks. If i manually choose a disk with "gksudo gparted /dev/sd*": sda scans OK and Gparted starts (on this one sits windows), but crashes on sdb and sdc, which are in linux software raid.

Try the following which was suggested in the previously mentioned defect:
