[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#618741: udisks: doesn't write both labels for FAT32 partitions

[Paul Wise]

Package: udisks
Version: 1.0.2-3
Severity: normal

After writing a label to my USB stick (one FAT32 partition) using
palimpset, dosfslabel complains that there are differences between the
boot sector and its backup. Running dosfslabel from dosfstools fixes
these issues. More information about this problem is available here:
