I've just NMU'd util-linux with Ubuntu's patch. I'm pretty sure it did
fix this gnome-disk-utility bug when I tested it 2-3 weeks ago, but
now it doesn't anymore. Likely some sid upgrade since then (udisks2)
broke it.
Another similar bug was reported in Ubuntu 14.04, that also has the
"fixed" wipefs, which confirms my findings:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-disk-utility/+bug/1318954
Still, that util-linux upload fixes wipefs on FAT, and makes it easier
to debug the gnome-disk-utility bug without being confused by
a possible root cause in wipefs, so it was still worth it IMO.
Cheers,
