Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2009-03-17 18:02:29 UTC

Looks like a format string issue in the nautilus-gdu extension. Moving to gnome-disk-utility

Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2009-03-17 18:10:59 UTC

Not quite sure whats going on, actually. Looks like glibcs printf implementation decided to call strlen on NULL ? 

Anyway, removing the debug spew should fix it.

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2009-05-01 02:28:45 UTC

Sorry for loosing history while applying this...not a git master yet.

Comment 4 David Zeuthen (not reading bugmail) 2010-03-12 16:45:46 UTC

IIRC this was fixed shortly after this bug was filed.
