Here I cannot repair gparted installation. The error reports stay the same because of
libparted and because of gpt-partition-table. Not sure if libparted is malformed somehow ?!
sudo eopkg it --reinstall libparted gparted
... stays with same result. Malformed gpt was already happening in Linux-Community
two years ago or before corona-time.
DirtyAngel
sudo eopkg it --reinstall libparted gparted
This command works just fine for me. Did you try sudo eopkg delete-cache then run that command again?
DirtyAngel Is this with your fake hard drive again? (https://discuss.getsol.us/d/9848-exotic-harddisk-new)
In any case can you post more info about what you're trying to do and what the exact error message is?
Staudey Yes - I unplugged the malicious fake-hard-disk. It seems that gpt-partition-table hard-coded on hard-disk has overwritten gpt-settings of gparted.
This was case too in some "cheap" usb-sticks before corona-time. Partition-table behaved then strange.
It seems that the odd partition-table of these devices is hard-coded.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd<partition>
... does not help.
Device is simply then junk.

Life is too short to deal with stuff like that. Not as cheap as disks and SSDs are today.
