Uncaught exception when launching GParted

[Simon Chopin]

Binary package hint: gparted

When launching GParted, the main window briefly appears, then I get this error (if launched in a terminal) :
======================
libparted : 2.3
======================

glibmm-ERROR **:
unhandled exception (type std::exception) in signal handler:
what: basic_string::_S_create

aborting...

I already checked in the Debian BTS if the bug is already reported there, it isn't. As soon as I can get my hands on my Debian computer, I'll check to see if the error is present. I don't have time to check upstream yet, but will do as soon as possible.

I joined a strace output with the report.

In advance, thanks.

Simon
