Bug Description
I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 dev with secure-delete 3.1-6ubuntu1 and on wiping the empty space of an USB flash drive with FAT32 as filesystem I'm always getting this error after several hours:
root@ubuntu:~# sfill -fllv /media/sdf1
Wipe mode is insecure (one pass [random])
Wiping now ...
Creating /media/
Aborted
Also the filesystem does then contain several empty files with random filenames.

Also I'm noticing if I'm targeting the device file I'm getting 2 errors while the second looks it should not appear:
root@ubuntu:~# sfill -fllv /dev/sdf1
Error: /dev/sdf1 is not a directory
Programming Error: sdel-lib was not initialized before calling sdel_finnish().
