Public bug reported: While running usb-creator-gtk it asks for root authentication to install the boot loader ("System policy prevents installation of the boot loader") but even if I enter the correct authentication the program gives a failure message and terminates. Afterwards two loopback devices stay mounted. I tried with and without the casper partition, both fails. also running usb-creator-gtk with sudo fails (without asking for root password).
