Hi Curtis,

You were right when you said the following:

> We might get a few questions on this by users.

Turns out that I'm that user!  I've seen this a few time recently and I
realise that I expect GParted to report the same figures as swapon -s
does.

Fix to follow shortly.

Hi Mike,

I successfully tested this change on the following distros:

  debian    7
  kubuntu  12.04 LTS
  ubuntu   14.10
  opensuse 13.2

Also as a test of backward compatibility I tried Fedora 12 and was able to compile and run GParted there.  :-)

I hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty of suffixing the bug number on the first line of the commit text.

The patch in comment #1 has been committed to the git repository for inclusion in the next release of GParted.

The relevant git commit can be viewed at the following link:
