Description Kamil Páral 2016-09-20 12:48:44 UTC

Description of problem:
When an error occurs during writing, it says only "Finished!" and no error is displayed in GUI, nor in terminal.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mediawriter-3.96.0-0.fc25.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. format the stick to have a single partition
2. mount the partition
3. "cd" in terminal to have CWD at the partition mount point (so that it can't be unmounted)
4. try to write to that stick using mediawriter
5. see that it goes to Finished immediately after pressing Write, and no error is displayed (even though the image was *not* written, of course)

This now says "Error". It would be great to have it more verbose ("couldn't unmount a partition" or something similar), but yeah, definitely better now.

Comment 4 Martin Bříza 2016-09-23 12:30:08 UTC

It actually writes "Device /dev/sdX is busy" for me. It depends on what the helper got from UDisks over DBus. Sometimes there's nothing... The same goes for dismissing the authentication dialog (sometimes it says that the dialog was dismissed, sometimes not).
