OK, I've finally found http://bugs.gentoo.org/278760 which explains that libhal returns NULL when no devices are found, not even setting the number of devices to 0. So we should check that before trying to add them to our internal list.

Could we get rid of this in the first place? ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- shares-admin crashes on start when udev has been restarted without reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/490694 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
