Package: gnome-disk-utility
Version: 3.36.3-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?  Wished to clone a flash drive by image
creation and restore to another.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?  I can find no work around.
   * What was the outcome of this action?Error creating disk image
Error allocating space for disk image file: No space left on device (g-io-
error-quark. 12)
   * What outcome did you expect instead?  It should have worked as it always
did without this error on these flash drives.

I cannot tell if some recent upgrade changed something in Disks or not, but I
did upgrade to the latest testing version and it die not help.
