Bug#985451: Unable to read the contents of exfat file system

2021-03-18 Thread Marc Haber
Package: gparted
Version: 1.2.0-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

a partition formatted with the exfat file system is flagged in the
partition list with an exclamation mark. Information says "Warning:
Unable to read the contents of this file system!  Because of this some
operations may be unavailable.  The cause might be a missing software
package.  The following list of software packages is required for exfat
file system support:  exfatprogs."

exfatprogs is installed.

In an strace, I can see an execve for tune.exfat -l /dev/sdg1 which
returns like:
exfatprogs version : 1.1.0
label: zg2emerg

I didn't see any obvious error in strace, and unfortunately gparted does
not share what it has been trying to do to determine that it cannot read
the file system.

Greetings
Marc
