Description : GParted stands for Gnome Partition Editor and is a graphical
            : frontend to libparted. Among other features it supports creating,
            : resizing, moving and copying of partitions. Also several
            : (optional) filesystem tools provide support for filesystems not
            : included in libparted. These optional packages will be detected at
            : runtime and don't require a rebuild of GParted
But when I am trying to run it I get the following message:

Code: Select all

[pau@centos ~]$ su -c "gparted"
Password: 
======================
libparted : 2.1

(gpartedbin:3939): glibmm-CRITICAL **: 
unhandled exception (type Glib::Error) in signal handler:
domain: g_convert_error
code  : 1
what  : Invalid byte sequence in conversion input
Does anyone know how to solve the problem?
Thank you very much in advance.
