$ rpm -qv liveusb-creator liveusb-creator-3.11.7-2.fc18.noarch Happened to me when I had already mounted cdrom with the disk label containing non-ascii codes like the following: /dev/sr0 on /run/media/dw/WRÓBEL^SZYMON type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=500,gid=500,iocharset=utf8,mode=0400,dmode=0500,uhelper=udisks2) Having not mounted any similar disks allows the liveusb-creator to be launched without any problems.
