Hi,
I'm on Cinnamon Mint 19.0 / 19.1 and have the same problem:
After starting GParted once, the partition info for GNOME Disks (extended 
partition only) is permanently lost, even without any action in GParted.
The corruption shows the extended partition empty, but it is not.
Also see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gparted/issues/33
Please, it's time to move!

Title:
  Partitions display wrong in gnome -disks - ok in gparted

Status in gnome-disk-utility package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The partitions displayed by gnome-disk-utility are wrong. When i use
  gparted the partitions displayed are correct.

  The display became wrong after i deleted 1 partition from the disk
  using gnome-disk-utility.

  Here is a screenshot of the 2 tools vision of the same disk:

  Here is the fdisk:

  I get *very nervous* when tools that have write access to partitions
  can't display them properly.

  
  Good hunt
