[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#699360: gnome-disk-utility: UDF partitions support, should replace NTFS

[Paul Wise]

Package: gnome-disk-utility
Version: 3.6.1-1
Severity: wishlist

I wanted to try out UDF on a USB stick because of this article:

http://tanguy.ortolo.eu/blog/article93/usb-udf

Unfortunately gnome-disks doesn't appear to support UDF at this time,
even if I put "udf" or "UDF" into the custom format field. I had
udftools installed at the time I tried this.

Based on that article, I think UDF should replace FAT as the default
format for the "Compatible with most systems" situation.
